EL CAJON (KUSI) – A man and a female were wounded in a car-to-car shooting early Thursday on Interstate 8 near El Cajon.
Shots were fired from inside a newer black SUV in the eastbound lanes near Los Coches Road around 1 a.m., California Highway Patrol Officer Tommy Doerr said.
It was not immediately clear whether there was an altercation between the occupants prior to the gunfire.
