WEST HAVEN, Conn. - A motorist opened fire on a group of Hell’s Angels motorcyclists
along Interstate 95 on Sunday, killing one and injuring another, police said.
The bikers were traveling near West Haven around 3:30 p.m. when they were
shot, said State Police spokesman Sgt. J. Paul Vance.
Police were considering a number of possible motives including road rage, and
were searching for a sport utility vehicle with Florida license plates, Vance said.
Roger Mariani, 61, of Stratford, pulled over before realizing he had been shot
in the upper torso, Vance said. He later died at the Yale-New Haven Hospital.
Paul Carrol, 37, of Bridgeport, who was grazed by a bullet, was treated at
the hospital and released, Vance said.
