[Daily Mail, where America gets its news] One of two men who shot each other's daughters in a road rage incident has seen his charges dropped after prosecutors decided he acted in self-defense.

Frank Allison, 44, opened fire on William Hale, 36, after the two began swerving and brake-checking each other on a Florida highway last year. He shot at Hale's car after the 36-year-old flung a water bottle into his car during the fight.

But authorities decided that his first shot was justifiable under Florida's 'stand your ground' self-defense law, determining that Hale was at fault for the ensuing chaos.

Alisson fired a single shot into Hale's car after the bottle was thrown, hitting Hale's 5-year-old daughter in the leg. Hale responded by emptying his Glock semi-automatic handgun at Alisson's vehicle, hitting his 14-year-old daughter in the back, causing her to suffer a collapsed lung.

Both men initially faced attempted murder charges after the incident, until Alisson's charges were dropped earlier this month. Speaking at the time of the shooting, Nassau County Sheriff Bill Leeper said: 'There could have been two dead kids because of two stupid grown men.'
