A BIKER in America has shot dead a speed camera operator in a ride-by shooting, Police have said.
Thomas Destories, 68, handed himself into Police after opening fire on speed camera operator Doug Georgianni's van.
Destories has subsequently been charged with the first-degree murder of the 51-year-old.
"I'm sorry. I was going to turn myself in," Destories, 68, told police. "I didn't mean for anyone to get hurt."
During the incident five shots were fired at the marked Safety Camera van. Three were grouped on the window of Mr Georgianni's seat.
Police found a magazine for a .45-calibre pistol in Destories' front pocket when they arrested him.
