Raleigh police are investigating after six separate shootings into cars during morning rush hour along Interstate 40. Deputy Chief Rico Boyce said the first incident was reported Monday near the Chapel Hill Road exit when a woman suffered a non-life-threatening gunshot wound to her leg.

At least seven cars and one woman have been struck by bullets on or near Interstate 40 in Raleigh and Cary this week. Why it matters: The Raleigh Police Department is investigating all of the incidents and said at a press conference on Wednesday that at least some of them appear to be connected — though many questions remain about the incidents.
