Eric Schnetzer was 45 and worked as a nurse. He was a father of three whose partner, Carrie McPherson, described him as a devoted parent. His life ended in a road rage shooting on July 28, 2020, on an Orlando-area roadway that began on Florida’s Turnpike and moved onto South Orange Blossom Trail at Consulate Drive.

Surveillance video and traffic cameras show Schnetzer and another driver, Nael Zaben Abraham, driving aggressively toward one another as they exited the turnpike. According to the Orange County Sheriff’s Office, Abraham pulled an Infiniti QX60 alongside Schnetzer’s pickup truck, rolled down his window and fired a single shot that struck Schnetzer in the head. Schnetzer’s truck rolled slowly through the intersection; he was taken to hospital and pronounced dead.

Investigators traced the suspect vehicle to 25-year-old Nael Abraham, arrested August 5, 2020, on a second-degree murder warrant. Prosecutors said Abraham pursued rather than disengaged from the dispute; a jury convicted him of second-degree murder with a firearm and a judge later sentenced him to 50 years, including a 25-year mandatory minimum. Does anyone have information about Schnetzer’s last movements that evening or saw the vehicles involved?
