A video from an in-car camera shows a driver pulling out his gun and exchanging gunfire with another driver in the middle of Interstate 95 in Miami-Dade County.

Florida Highway Patrol officials said a Toyota Venza and a Camry were driving southbound on I-95 near Northwest 151st Street around 7 a.m. last June 21 when there was a road rage incident.

The video shows the moment when Eric Popper pulls out his gun and fires several shots at the other driver in the middle of the busy highway.

Both drivers opened fire at each other. Both cars were hit by the gunshots, but both individuals were uninjured, Florida Highway Patrol officials reported.

After the incident, both drivers notified police, authorities said.

Popper, who told police that the other man fired first, was arrested and is awaiting trial.
