Description
Last month, a man who lives out of state was headed to the airport when he witnessed a freeway shooting on I-5. Now, details of what he saw are critical in finding the suspect who injured a military veteran in mid-February.
Trooper Rick Johnson of the Washington State Patrol said the shooting, which occurred around 11 p.m. on Feb. 19, appears to be a random ambush. It left bullet holes in a Mustang and possibly paralyzed the driver, 35-year-old Evan Hershey.
Evan Hershey, a Pierce County man who is also a U.S. Navy veteran, was in his Mustang driving home from work when he came under fire.
"The witness said the two vehicles were just driving along," Johnson said. "There was no aggression." The shooting occurred on southbound Interstate 5 near 405 in Tukwila.
Detectives said the involved vehicle is likely a gray KIA Optima.
