TACOMA — Tacoma police hope the parents of a 2-year-old girl wounded in a road rage shooting can remember details to help them catch the shooter.
Police spokesman Mark Fulghum said investigators today only know that the suspect fled in an SUV, believed to be a black Ford Explorer.
The wounded girl was treated at Mary Bridge children’s hospital for a wound in the thigh and is expected to recover.
Fulghum said she had been riding in a back seat car seat in a car driven by her father with her mother in the front passenger seat.
Fulghum said one car cut off another in traffic, hand gestures were exchanged and the driver of the SUV fired into the family’s car.
The family had a minor accident driving to a relative’s home to call for help.
