Paola Nunez Linares, 37, suffered a gunshot wound to the head during the shocking incident in Hurst, Texas and later died at John Peter Smith Hospital in Fort Worth. Investigators say that the victim’s husband, Zane Jones, told them they were shot at as he was driving their maroon 2017 KIA minivan north on East Loop 820 when they were ‘involved in a road rage incident’ with the other motorist. Paola Nunez Linares shot and killed after husband Zane Jones ‘flipped off’ motorist during road rage incident (Facebook) No arrests have been made in connection with this case and investigators are looking for a small, older model car of dark colour. Mr Jones, who married his Guatemala-born wife last year, addressed the incident on Facebook and asked for help in bringing the shooter to justice. ‘I can’t put into words, everything that my wife meant to me. She was my rock when times were hard. She was my teammate at work and at home. She was my partner in crime through the good and the bad. ‘She was equally as wonderful as a step-mom. She actively took part in the lives of my children. She loved them as their own. She wanted them to be the best people on the planet, and she tried to always show that to them. ‘She was an innocent victim. She was a passenger in the car when I flipped off a driver who put us in danger. She always hated when I did that, and I did it anyways. ‘Then the driver shot into our car and struck my beautiful wife, who had nothing to do with anything. She was the most special person I’ve ever known, and I can’t understand why it happened. She was my other half and I’ll love her until the day I die. ‘ And he told Fort Worth’s KXAS-TV that he wants to see the shooter ‘rot’ behind bars. ‘I need him caught, I need him prosecuted, I need him in prison. I need him to know he didn’t just fire a gun into a car, ‘The end.’ He killed someone who’s not like anyone,’ Jones told the station. ‘Someone who had nothing to do with anything. Someone who was a passenger of the person he was mad at,’ he said.
