Authorities pull over dozens of cars in hunt for I-96 shooter

Authorities have pulled over dozens of cars Tuesday in Livingston County in ongoing efforts to catch a shooter terrorizing the Interstate 96 corridor.

Livingston County Sheriff Bob Bezotte said authorities have received plenty of tips throughout the day with some citizens writing down license plate numbers as authorities pursue a suspect who has allegedly shot at least 25 moving vehicles on roadways in Ingham, Livingston, Shiawassee and Oakland counties.

"It's encouraging that we're getting this much of a response from the public," he said.

Deputies have followed up on many of the tips, while pulling over several vehicles matching the suspect's black or dark-colored Chevrolet Cavalier or Oldsmobile Alero.

"We've pulled 30 or 40 cars today, anything that closely matches the description," Bezotte said. "No arrests, though."
