A Poland man was shot and killed early Saturday morning in Pennsylvania in an apparent incident of road rage.

Timothy Davison, 28, was traveling north on Interstate 81 at about 2:10 a.m. when he reported to police that he was being chased and shot at by someone in a Ford Ranger-style truck, according to Pennsylvania State Police.

Police say his car was rammed into a median strip on Mile 3, just north of the Maryland border. The pursuer then fired a weapon several times and hit Davison, according to police.

Davison died from his wounds at York Hospital in York, Pa.

“It all seems a little surreal because it’s just incredible,” his father, Timothy Davison of Raymond, said Saturday afternoon. “He had gone to visit his grandfather and sister in Florida for the holidays.”

He said he spoke to his son at 4 p.m. Friday. At that time, the younger Davison was in Georgia. He liked driving at night.

Police told the elder Davison that the road rage attack began in Maryland.

“All they had told me is that he made the first 911 call when he was in Maryland,” the father said. “He told them there was a vehicle that was like a Ford Ranger shooting at him. When he cross the Maryland-Pennsylvania line, the call got dropped. When he got into (Pennsylvania), he called 911 again, but they told me that essentially, it looks like they ran his vehicle off the road into the median and shot him in his vehicle.”

The younger Davison worked as a fabricator in his father’s heavy industrial construction business, Engineered Construction Services in Raymond.

“He’s … very, very intelligent,” the senior Davison said of his son. “He was very good at what he did.”

The young man was not married and had no children.

“He had a girlfriend who is in Texas with the National Guard,” his father said.

His family included his mother, Theresa Allocca of Scarborough, and a stepmother, Lisa Davison of Raymond.
