The death of Tammy Meyers last week was chalked up to a horrible and tragic case of road rage. Most road rage incidents tend to be between strangers in a collision of tempers.

However, recent revelations in the case of Meyers have shown otherwise. The Los Angeles Times said the 44-year-old mother of four had encountered an angry motorist after taking her 15-year-old daughter for a driving lesson. She was later shot outside of her home.

On Feb. 14 her family took her off life support.

Police had originally sought a suspected gang member for the crime. On Thursday, police arrested 19-year-old Erich Nowsch in connection to the murder. Nowsch lived a block from the Meyers home. Not only were Nowsch and Meyers neighbors, but the two also knew each other well. Meyers had taken the teen under her wing. In the past, Meyers provided money, food and advice to the teen.

Authorities are now trying to uncover what happened between the two that resulted in Meyers' death.

The details police do know are when Meyers returned home after the initial interaction between the two drivers, she went out in search for the other driver. Her 22-year-old son, Brandon, joined her in the search and armed himself with a 9mm Beretta. Brandon tried unsuccessfully to convince his mother to remain in the house and instead to call the police.

According to court documents, "Brandon said he told his mother to come in the house and call the police, but she told him no, come with me or I will go by myself." The two drove around the area in search of the car. They followed the car for a time and eventually decided to return home.

Later on in the night a car showed up in front of the Meyers' home. A man reportedly got out of the passenger's seat and fired at them. Brandon fired back. In the ensuing gunfight, Tammy Meyers was hit in the head.

Nowsch reportedly bragged about the crime and said, "Got those kids," who he said were after him. 

Previously, people in the community had donated money to the family. However, after more details were released about the crime, fundraising sites have shut down. Robert Meyers, the victim's husband, announced on Facebook he would return the $6,000 the family received.

"If all of you people think I was a fraud and lied about the facts, I'm truly sorry," Meyers wrote.

Friends knew Nowsch as "Baby G." He was arrested on Thursday after a standoff with police.

Authorities said seven .45 caliber cartridge casings and three 9mm casings were found at the scene of the murder.

As of Friday, police are still looking for the second suspect who Nowsch said was the gunman. The teen will be arraigned Monday on charges of murder and attempted murder.
