Officials said the suspects, who were traveling in a black Toyota sedan, brake-checked a black Chevrolet Camaro and threw eggs onto the windshield, which obstructed the driver's view and caused him to pull over to the right shoulder.

At some point, two suspects wearing masks, gloves and armed with pistols reportedly got out of the Toyota and robbed the victim at gunpoint. After the robbery, police said the suspects fled and continued westbound on I-24 toward Nashville.
