Police Investigate California Highway Shootings

SAN FRANCISCO (Reuters) - The California Highway Patrol said on Saturday it was investigating as many as six shootings in the past week on a busy northern California freeway that left one motorist injured by glass from an exploding window.

"The possible sixth shooting is being investigated to confirm it was a shooting. It also appears from our investigation that all the shootings came from the same vehicle," said Bill Parkin, a CHP spokesman.

Most of the shootings, which started last Monday, happened on busy interstate 580, roughly 30 miles east of San Francisco.

Parkin said police were still examining bullet holes in the cars hit by the shooter, whom witnesses described as a white male in his early 30s.

The California shootings are similar to a number of unresolved shootings in Ohio that began in May and have killed one woman, and recall a three-week shooting spree in autumn 2002 that killed 10 people in the Washington, D.C., area.
