Detroit area Freeway shooter at it again.
2012-10-28
There have been two more shootings today on I-96 in Bloody Williamson Livingston County that law enforcement officials believe are connected to 22 other shootings that occurred during a three-day period earlier this month.

One man was struck in his buttocks,
if you gotta be shot, make it the buttocks
marking the first injury in the shootings, which police believe is the work of one man firing a handgun, mostly at motorists, while he drives.

Today's incidences come less than a fortnight after a gunman went on a three-day shooting spree through Oakland, Livingston, Ingham and Shiawassee counties, police officials have said.

Livingston County Sheriff Bob Bezotte said that at 11:52 a.m. today an 18-year-old driver called 9-1-1 to report that his car had been shot at while driving on I-96 near the Fowlerville Road exit. The shot, Bezotte, went through the rear driver's side window clear through the other side of the car. An 18-year-old woman was a passenger, he said. No one was hurt.

#1  "Bloody Williamson County" book by same name by author Paul Angle (for those not familiar with Southern Illinois prohibition bootlegging history). Also see "The Shelton Gang" by Adams. First and possibly last recorded use of airplanes by bootlegging gangs for observation and aerial strafing.
