SACRAMENTO, Calif. — Authorities shut down Interstate 80 in both directions in North Sacramento after a reported shooting on the highway, Wednesday night.
According to the California Highway Patrol (CHP), two vehicles were heading westbound on I-80 when as the vehicles approached the Madison Avenue exit, someone in one of the cars, a dark-colored sedan, shot into the other vehicle, a green minivan, CHP said.
One person in the minivan was struck. That person was taken to the hospital in unknown condition.
Authorities closed the highway for a little more than an hour while investigators combed the scene. The highway was reopened just after 11 p.m.
Investigators have not identified the shooting victim nor have they said what led to the shooting.
Editor's note: A previous version of this story reported the two vehicles heading westbound on I-80 got into some kind of altercation before the shooting happened.
