They haven't posted their releases on their website since they got a new PIO, but here's the whole Spokane Police Department news release:
-----------------------------------
Man Wounded in Drive by Shooting
May 15, 2006
A man is recovering after being wounded in a drive-by shooting in North Spokane this morning.
The 25-year old victim was shot in the left arm while driving north on Division near Francis shortly after midnight.
He told Spokane Police Officers that the bullet was fired by a man driving in the lane next to him.
Officers found the driver’s side window of the victim’s vehicle shot out.
The man was in satisfactory condition following surgery for his injury.
A woman and a baby in the man’s vehicle were not hurt.
The suspect is described only as a white or Hispanic man with a moustache.
The suspect fled in a large older maroon or burgundy sedan.
------------------------
OK, so you are driving down the road (25mph) and some guy drives up along side of you, points a gun at you and shoots. This area has a center divider to your left and is all businesses with large parking lots on your right. What response, keeping in mind that your wife and baby are in the car with you and you have just lost the use of your left arm?
