The Virginia State Police released a photo of the vehicle driven by the suspect in the shooting incident on the beltway in Annandale at 4:50 a.m. on Aug. 25. It’s a blue, two-door 2010 Honda Civic with Virginia license plate TWW 9398.

On Sept. 4 it was found in the woods in Prince William County, WUSA9 tweeted. It had been torched.

According to the Virginia State Police, another driver had called them to say his vehicle was shot at by the driver of a blue Honda Civic as both vehicles were traveling north on I-495 approaching the 52B exit for Little River Turnpike.

The Civic stopped onto the shoulder of the exit ramp. The other vehicle pulled in behind the Civic. The Civic driver, an adult male, got out and fired several rounds at the other vehicle, jumped back in his car, and sped away.

Neither the other vehicle nor the driver was struck during the shootings.

State police are still working to piece together the initial interaction between the two vehicles on the beltway.

Anyone with information about the incident or who saw suspicious activity in Prince William Forest between 3 and 4 a.m. Sept. 4 is encouraged to contact the Virginia State Police by dialing #77 on a cell phone or 702-803-0026 on a landline or send an email to [email protected].

    1. The ‘Pro Media Tour’ link may contain the worst writing I’ve ever read, and still fails to tell the reader anything about a motive. Thank you for the laugh however.
