LAS VEGAS - A 44-year-old woman has died after being shot in the head in an apparent road-rage attack outside her home in Las Vegas.

Family members say Tammy Meyers died after being taken off life support Saturday night at University Medical Center.

Police say the mother of four gave her 14-year-old daughter a driving lesson in a nearby school parking lot and was driving back home when she had a near-collision with another vehicle Thursday night.

After an argument between the drivers, Meyers then drove home and summoned the help of an adult son as her daughter went inside the home.

Investigators say the suspect vehicle appeared outside the home, multiple shots were fired and the victim was struck by one round.

Three men were believed to be in the vehicle.
