[quote]Somebody has shot four moving vehicles on I-10 in Phoenix in the last three days, Arizona Department of Public Safety Director Frank Milstead said Monday.
"The best we know right now it's random," Milstead said, asking members of the public to call if they have information.
Two shootings occurred about 11 a.m. Saturday, one about 10:15 p.m. Saturday and one about 4:25 a.m. Monday, he said.
A 13-year-old girl suffered a cut to her right ear Saturday morning when a bullet pierced the windshield of the SUV in which she was riding, the DPS said in a press release. She was treated at the scene and didn't need hospitalization.
The other bullets hit the sides of the vehicles and a headlight.

If there's any FPers out that way, stay safe
Reminds me of stupid shit people at my middle school use to do back in the day. They thought it was funny to go out onto I-10 near the Ostritch farms and take pot shots with airsoft and paintball guns, while screaming dumb shit like "allahu ackbar" I honestly wouldn't be surprised if it was them still.

I think it's a pretty big leap between silly airsoft stunts and shooting 13 year old girls in the head

That's a big step up from airsoft

I live in Arizona Phoenix Arizona
Holy hell, I'm glad I got through Phoenix last week. Was headed home after a vacation between semesters and stayed with my grandmother over night.
Wasn't there another shooter that did this a few months ago?
What the fuck, I usually take the 10 to get home from work. I guess it's a good thing I just moved. :jawdrop:
Why the fuck

This happens way more often than it should. There was a guy doing that on I-96 up here by Detroit last year.
Oh wow, I take the I-10 to work every day... Shit, my commute sucked enough, now I have to worry about psychos with cars AND rifles...
Some sick POS did this a few years back near my place. I hope they find him before he kills someone.
My girlfriend asked me yesterday if she could keep a gun in the car since she takes the 10 to work.
I told her it wouldn't really help in this situation, but if it makes her feel safer, w/e.
Hopefully this guy will realize how twisted it is and stop. He's doing a hell of a lot to tarnish gun ownership, especially for us Arizonians.

Decent sized hole. 30 caliber probably.
Unbelievable what kinda nice things some people are fucking up to.
Ive taken this I-10 several times recently, and even once 3 days ago. Whats with people sniping cars?
Perhaps it could be an accident, someone shooting nearby and not having a proper backing like a hill for stray bullets perhaps?

Over the course of several days?
It's plausible, but I find it very unlikely.
