LAYTON, Utah — Police are searching for a motorcyclist who shot at a vehicle, injuring a driver, on I-15 in Layton Monday afternoon.
Witnesses on northbound I-15 in the Layton Hills Mall area said they saw a rider on a black Harley Davidson motorcycle pull out a firearm and shoot at a silver car, Utah Highway Patrol Sgt. Cameron Roden said.
In a press conference, UHP’s Sgt. Rick Shrader added that the car was hit multiple times.
The incident occurred about 2:30 p.m. and was a possible road-rage situation, said Shrader. However, they are still figuring out the exact reason why the shooting happened.
Around 6 p.m., Utah Highway Patrol located a victim from the silver car, who is suffering from a gunshot wound.
“(The victim) received injuries that caused this person to go to the local hospital,” Shrader said.
Troopers, as of Monday evening, had not located the motorcycle or its rider.
