LOS ANGELES (NewsNation Now) — D.C. Metropolitan Police have released a video with a plea for help in identifying the driver of a gray Maserati who opened fire on another driver in broad daylight.
It’s not known what sparked the violence, but a woman suffered non-life-threatening injuries, according to police.

On Tuesday, the Orange County Board of Supervisors proposed doubling the reward to $100,000 in the road-rage shooting of 6-year-old Aiden Leos.
The kindergartner was shot and killed Friday on the 55 Freeway in Orange, California while on his way to school with his mother.
“I can’t imagine the horror. And there’s nothing we can do to undo it. Maybe this is a little something we can do to at least being this person to justice,” said Orange County Supervisor Don Wager.
The rash of recent road rage around the country has also included a case of tailgating and then assault in North Carolina.
