12-5-2003 Ohio Freeway Shooting Cases Rise to 14
Two more shootings have occurred along an interstate highway since a woman was killed on the freeway last month, bringing the number of cases under investigation to 14, authorities said Friday.
On Sunday morning, a woman heard a thud as she drove on Interstate 270 and noticed a bullet hole when she got home, Martin said. She notified police on Tuesday.
In the other shooting, Emma Fader found a bullet hole in the front of her house about a quarter-mile from the highway and a bullet on her living room floor, the deputy said. Fader made the discovery Monday following a weekend away, she said.
At Fader's home, the bullet splintered solid oak paneling about a foot above a birdcage and about four feet from the couch where her son Donald Fitch sleeps.
While authorities haven't commented on the type of weapon used, Fitch said a police officer from suburban Obetz told him the shot must have come from a high-powered rifle.
