TRENTON, N.J. -- Authorities were investigating reports of a shooting incident Wednesday evening involving a car and a tractor-trailer on the George Washington Bridge, police and turnpike spokesmen said.
A witness reported that shots were fired at the truck at about 6 p.m. as the vehicles traveled westbound on the upper span of the bridge, according to Pasquale DiFulco, spokesman for the Port Authority of New York and New Jersey, which operates the bridge. No one was injured, authorities said.

No arrests had been made and no one was in custody Wednesday evening, according to DiFulco.
