PICTURED: FL AAA Driver SHOT DEAD Over Wait Time Dispute

Florida man, Jesus Esquivel, is accused of fatally shooting an AAA Roadside Assistance service driver, Magdiel Hernandez, because he was angry about how much time it took for him to arrive.

Esquivel, 63, was booked into the Turner Guilford Knight Correctional Center early Wednesday on a charge of second-degree murder, according to the Miami-Dade police report.

Esquivel was waiting at his Kendall home on Southwest 87th Court for AAA to fix a malfunctioning car battery. When the technician called Esquivel to tell him that he was on the way, Esquivel became irate and threatened the technician, police said. The technician called AAA dispatch and asked to be removed from the service call because of the threats, police said. source

AAA then assigned Hernandez, 38, to the service call, police said.

When Hernandez arrived, Esquivel confronted him and shot him multiple times, police said.

Hernandez was pronounced dead at the scene.

Our thoughts and prayers go out to the family and friends at this difficult time.
