At about 3:25 a.m., a man called 911 to report he was shot at while driving southbound near Ellingson Road, according to an Aug. 28 State Patrol news release.
The man told troopers he was traveling in his 2019 grey Honda Accord when a dark grey Toyota Highlander passed him and then brake checked him. He proceeded to pass the Toyota at which time the Toyota sped up and passed him again and the fired a handgun at his vehicle. He was not injured.
