Deputies in Seminole County think road rage could be the cause of an accident that ended when a driver crashed into a pole, splitting it in half and killing a passenger.

Lt. James Clark said one of the occupants in the crashed vehicle was firing a weapon through the sunroof at passing cars on Interstate 4, near Lake Mary Boulevard sometime around 3:30 a.m.

Deputies responded to I-4 and followed the car. "Deputies tried to stop the vehicle, but it fled," Clark said. "The car was speeding at an excess of 100 mph before it lost control and struck a center median."

The car then spun out of control, striking a tree and wooden electric pole at West 25th Street and Elm Avenue in Sanford
