At approximately 6 p.m. Wednesday, police received a 911 call of a possible road rage incident that started near the train tracks on Ind. 13 in Syracuse. The incident between the two drivers continued for nearly 10 miles as they raced south into North Webster. It was reported that Jackson was driving a gray 2003 Dodge pickup and was allegedly shooting a gun at the occupants of a gray 2000 GMC Yukon.
