Ryan Eberly has said that before the shooting, he accidentally cut off a driver on I-95 south, forcing that car to the shoulder. The car came back around to the right and gunshots were fired.

"In three minutes, my whole world is turned upside down, and I don’t know why," Eberly told NBC affiliate WGAL of Lancaster, Pennsylvania.

"I saw in my mirror that he was passing us to the right. Gunshots were fired, and our car was hit. My wife yelled my name, and I asked if she was hit. She said yes," Ryan Eberly told WGAL.

He pulled over on the interstate and medical help arrived, the sheriff's office said. His wife was rushed to a hospital where she died.

Ryan Eberly was not hurt. The couple was driving to Hilton Head, South Carolina, for a getaway. Robeson County is next to the South Carolina border.

Robeson County Sheriff Burnis Wilkins said in a statement that surveillance video from businesses and residents was key to tracking Floyd's movements. The sheriff's office offered distributed photos of the car that investigators were looking for, and a donated $20,000 reward was offered.

"Regardless of the circumstances, no one deserved to be murdered," Wilkins said in the statement.
