According to the linked story above, a woman was shot AT on I-270 but was not hurt. A person in a blue truck is currently being detained by police for questioning.

About 30 to 40 miles, but still not enough details yet know if this sniper related. I-270 area is close to the first shootings last week.

Drivers on I-270 Report Shots Fired, Police Investigate

(Rockville) -- Police are questioning a man about a possible shooting on Interstate-270.

Montgomery County police say a woman driving on 270 near Route 28 called and reported to police that someone had shot at her.

She told police the shooter may have been in a blue Dodge pickup truck.

Police have stopped a blue truck near Route 124 and are questioning the driver, but they are not calling him a suspect at this point.

Woman says she was shot at by a man driving a blue truck. The man driving the blue truck is in custody. I agree, sounds like road rage.

Pretty stupid time to shoot at someone, doncha think......how often does road rage involve a shooting?

[Fred Mertz]

Thanks for posting the article. Sounds like a routine shooting incident, if that phraseology makes sense.

Correction . . . the police have --A-- man who was driving a blue truck. Could be somebody different from the alleged shooter.

Shots -- plural.

Doesn't sound like it fits the M.O.

Wife just called and said she was ticked at posters that are in too big of a rush to post without verifying the accuracy of their post.

Man, this aint the time for road rage. People ought to keep thier anger in check until we get this nutjob/terrorist....Then we can return to normal....

[Joe Hadenuf]

Their...Their, their.......

[battlecry]

Sorry I offended you.

[caa26]

I-270 traffic gets pretty crazy at rush hour, still no excuse for road roage.

[Joe Hadenuf]

Well of course not. But that would seem normal compared to what has been going on......

[Cboldt]

I would guess than very few road rage incidents also involve shooting. As to the
"stupidity" of shooting at people, shooting is deadly serious, and I am a bit reluctant to
apply that term to a shooter's mind-set. Evil-willed, yes; or self-defensive. But rarely is
a deliberate shooting a "stupid" act. If this person shot deliberately, at another person, it
is attempted homicide. And, in this circumstance, the shooting does not sound justified at
all.

Wife just called and wanted to know what is inaccurate in the original post ?

[alisasny]

Could be a domestic dispute however with all the media in the area how could a person not know about the sniper.....wonder when the media will break in...also....why is it taking so long to link the gas station shooting????

[mhking]

what is inaccurate in the original post

Falls Church v. Falls Rd.

[Aliska]

stores, gas stations, individuals etc should run out and set up camcorders everywhere

My thoughts exactly! It is coming to this.

Any chance your marriage can survive this?
