Policeman accused of shooting at civilians in traffic row in Turkey

An off-duty police officer has been accused of pursuing a civilian car and shooting at its occupants after arguing with them in traffic in Istanbul, daily Hürriyet reported today.
 
The officer, Nurullah Y., was reportedly returning from a night of entertainment when he dangerously passed Yunus D.'s car on Istanbul's TEM highway. Yunus D. blasted his car horn at Nurullah Y., who then slowed down and swore at Yunus D. before allegedly shooting at him with his official pistol. 

Yunus D. sped up and tried to escape the enraged policeman, which resulted in a chase that lasted for 10 kilometers. Nurullah Y. kept shooting at the civilian car for the duration of the chase and tried to force the car off the road. The policeman allegedly shot at the civilian vehicle a total of 12 times.
