ROBERT YANEZ, JR. Born: approx. 1983 Died: 07-2002, at age 19, Phoenix, Arizona. An Arizona Republic article on 07/22/2002 titled: "Driver Critical After Road Rage Erupts on I-17" stated: "Robert Yanez isn't very good at driving a stick shift," his girlfriend says. Stalling his 1995 Geo Prism may cost him his life. The 19-year-old was clinging to life Sunday after being shot by an angry motorist on Interstate 17, police say. Yanez was trying to enter the highway when his car stalled in front of a fast-moving white van. He was able to start the car, but as he accelerated, the van pulled alongside and someone fired three shots, striking Yanez twice. Another Arizona Republic article on 04/06/2003, about road rage stated: On July 21, 2002 Robert Yanez Jr., 19, was shot on Interstate-17, near Thomas Road after his car stalled in front of a fast-moving van. The van pulled alongside him and someone fired three shots, two that struck the former MHS student. Yanez died a week later.
