A man was taken to the hospital after being shot in a road rage incident on the Vine Street Expressway in Philadelphia Saturday night, police said.

Philadelphia Police Inspector D F Pace said PPD officers and Delaware River Port Authority Police responded to a call of a person shot at the base of the Ben Franklin Bridge just before the on-ramp on Interstate 676 around 10 p.m.

Initially, it was believed that the shooting happened near the Independence Mall area, but police confirmed that wasn't true and the shooting actually happened on I-676.

Pace said it appears that a 30-year-old man was driving eastbound on the Vine Street Expressway when he got into a road rage incident with another car.

Police believe the driver of a Lexus fired one shot in the direction of the 30-year-old's car. That shot hit the driver's side door, pierced through, and hit the driver in the hip.

The driver then exited the Vine Street Expressway, heading toward the Ben Franklin Bridge, and police stated that they believe the offender's car continued onto I-95 northbound.

After being shot, the driver saw officers from the Delaware River Port Authority at the base of the Ben Franklin Bridge, and then they notified Philly police, according to Pace.

Pace said the 31-year-old driver was taken to Jefferson Hospital, where he is now listed in stable condition.  

The road rage incident was handed over to the Pennsylvania State Police after Philly police talked with the driver.
