State Police released the name of the driver found shot to death behind the wheel of his Mercedes Benz, which crashed along I-76 in Camden County.
On Jan. 24, at approximately 10:32 p.m., troopers from Troop “A” Bellmawr Station responded to a single-vehicle crash on I-76 eastbound at milepost .4 in Mount Ephraim Borough. When troopers arrived, they found the driver of a black 2004 Mercedes Benz 500, identified as Louis E. Ciccanti Jr. had been shot and killed, police said. His Mercedes had crashed into a traffic barrier along the side of the highway.
A preliminary investigation revealed that the victim and an unidentified black sedan vehicle were both traveling eastbound on I-76 in the area of Passyunk Avenue, Philadelphia, when they became involved in a “road rage” incident, police said. Surveillance video from the Walt Whitman Bridge captured both vehicles continuing over the bridge into New Jersey onto I-76 eastbound, police said.
