PA Mom Of 6 Dies In Road Rage Shooting: Latest On Investigation

PENNSYLVANIA — A $10,000 reward is now being offered in the road rage killing of a Pennsylvania woman and mother of six who was on vacation in North Carolina.

The money was provided by an anonymous resident of Robeson County, the county where the incident took place.

"While we hope that anyone with information in this case would come forward, this provided incentive should be cause to do so even more," county Sheriff Burnis Wilkins said in announcing the reward.

No suspects have been identified yet in the shooting, which led to the death of 47-year-old Julie Eberly, a resident of Manheim in Lancaster County.

Currently, authorities are searching for video footage and eyewitness accounts of the incident.

Eberly was riding down I-95 with her husband near the town of Lumberton at around 11:40 a.m. last Thursday. The couple was traveling to the beach to celebrate their wedding anniversary, which was on the day before the shooting.

The Eberly's vehicle came close to the shooter's vehicle when lanes were merging, authorities said. Shortly thereafter, the shooter pulled alongside the passenger side of the Eberly's, rolled down his window, and fired several shots into the passenger door, according to the Robeson County Sheriff's Department.

One of the shots struck Julie Eberly, and her husband pulled over to the side of the road. The suspect sped off and exited the highway at Exit 22, crossing over a bridge that goes into the town of Lumberton, according to police.

Police said they think the suspect was driving a silver or gray 2010 Chevrolet Malibu or Impala, with tinted windows and chrome around the window frame.

Sheriff Wilkins urged the public to come forward, before addressing the suspect directly.

"Let’s show others that we won’t tolerate this," he said. "This murderous coward must be caught...Or better yet, be a man and turn yourself in as I am sure you will read this. God won’t forget and we won’t give up on bringing you to justice."

A GoFundMe to benefit the family has already raised nearly $45,000 from almost a thousand donors.

Wilkins added that he'd spoken with the family.

"As devastated as they are, they were so appreciative of the outpouring of support they have received not only from their home community in Pennsylvania but our community as well," he said.
