MIAMI-DADE COUNTY, Fla. – A woman driving in a Maserati on Interstate 95 was shot several times by an unknown assailant that police are now trying to identify.
According to the Florida Highway Patrol, the victim was driving north on I-95 in the area of Northwest 119th Street on Sunday.
That’s when, troopers say, a white sedan pulled up along the driver side of the Maserati and opened fire.
The vehicle was shot over 30 times, according to authorities, and the victim was struck several times on the left side of her body.
She was rushed to Ryder Trauma Center at Jackson Memorial Hospital with non-life threatening injuries, FHP said.

The incident is just the latest in a string of highway shootings, many of them cases of road rage.
