COLUMBUS, Ohio – Police were hunting for a 28-year-old man who they believe may be the elusive gunman linked to two dozen highway shootings that have terrorized area motorists for months.

The Franklin County Sheriff’s Office said the suspect, Charles A. McCoy Jr., lived within miles of where the gunman’s bullets killed a passenger, shattered windshields, dented school buses and drilled into homes and a school.

“The key issue for us right now is to locate this guy,” Chief Deputy Steve Martin said. “We believe he bought another gun.”

…”I don’t know if he’s still local,” Martin said. “We don’t have any reason to believe he’s not.”
