Two Sacramento residents were arrested Saturday near Truckee after a report that a vehicle’s passenger had discharged a firearm from his window as they entered westbound Interstate 80 from Hirschdale Road.
The search for the vehicle, a late-model Chevrolet Impala, began when a citizen flagged down a Truckee California Highway Patrol officer at I-80 and Hirschdale Road at 4:46pm, authorities said. The individual told the officer he wasn’t sure if he was being shot at or if the suspect was just randomly shooting out the window.
All available CHP Truckee units joined the search and located the car on westbound I-80, west of the Donner Lake interchange.
