Investigators say that the shooting was reported a little before 10:30 p.m. on northbound lanes just south of the 210 Freeway. They learned that the male driver of a silver sedan opened fire from their vehicle into another car.
One bullet struck the passenger-side door, but no one inside was injured.
There was no information available on the suspect's identity or a possible motive in the incident.
Photos shared by CHP's Baldwin Park station show detectives pulling at least one spent from inside of the vehicle, which also has a bullet hole on the door.

NYC gunman who blamed NFL for hiding brain injury dangers suffered from sports concussion, mom said

LOS ANGELES (AP) — The mother of the man who killed four people at a Manhattan office tower home to the NFL before taking his own life told 911 dispatchers during a 2022 incident when he threatened to kill himself that he suffered from a sports-related concussion and other issues, new information released by Las Vegas police Tuesday revealed. Shane Tamura, 27, had a documented history of mental health problems and carried a handwritten note in his wallet when he carried out the shooting that claimed he had chronic traumatic encephalopathy, known at CTE, investigators said. He accused the football league of hiding the dangers of brain injuries linked to contact sports. His mother told the dispatchers on Sept. 12, 2022, that her son was also struggling with depression, chronic migraines and insomnia; was taking sleeping pills and smoked marijuana; and kept a gun in his backpack. It was one of two incidents that led to Tamura being admitted to hospitals for mental health crises. 'He said he's going to kill himself,' she said in the recorded 911 call. 'He didn't say he made a plan, he just said he just can't take it anymore.' Tamura's mother placed the call from outside a Budget Suites Motel and reported that her son was threatening to hurt himself. 'He just started crying and slamming things and said I'm making him worse, so I said, 'I'll step outside,'' she said. 'I don't want you to be upset, but I'm afraid to leave.' She told dispatchers she would wait in the stairwell because she did not want Tamura to know she had called the police. Tamura was committed to a hospital again in 2024 after calling his mother and making statements about wanting to hurt himself, according to a first responder captured on body camera video released by Las Vegas police. Tamura, 27, worked at the Horseshoe Las Vegas until last week, when authorities say he drove his car to New York and carried out the shooting.

Woody Allen recalls Jeffrey Epstein dinner parties served by ‘young women'

Woody Allen frequently attended 'interesting' dinner parties hosted by Jeffrey Epstein, which he recalled being attended by an eclectic collection of VIP guests being 'well served' by young women. A typewritten letter obtained by the New York Times and reportedly penned by Allen in 2016, described 'many' of the 89-year-old filmmaker's visits to the seven-story Upper East Side townhouse that Epstein called home. The letter was reportedly part of a collection of missives written to celebrate the billionaire's 63rd birthday. 'Being neighbors,' Allen said he and and his wife, Soon-Yi Previn, were often invited to dine with Epstein and 'always' accepted before the disgraced financier died by suicide while awaiting trial on federal sex trafficking charges in 2019. 'Lots of dishes, plenty of choices, numerous desserts, well served,' Allen wrote. 'I say well served — often it's by some professional houseman and just as often by several young women [reminding] one of Castle Dracula,' comparing the experience to the 'young female vampires' seen in a Bela Lugosi horror film. Allen's newly obtained letter comes just weeks after the Wall Street Journal reported that a collection of cards written for Epstein's 50th birthday included a cryptic and suggestive letter from President Trump saying 'may every day be another wonderful secret.' The president has denied penning that note and quickly filed a lawsuit against the Journal seeking billions of dollars in damages. Calls for the Justice Department to further release details of its Epstein investigation have grown louder since Trump came into office in January after indicating he'd make those files public. Former Trump ally Elon Musk suggested in June the reason the investigation is being slowed is because the president — a longtime friend of Epstein — is mentioned in the Epstein files. Neither Trump nor Allen have been accused of any wrongdoing involving Epstein. Allen famously married Soon-Yi Previn in 1997, when she was 27 and he was 62. Previn was the adopted daughter of Allen's ex-girlfriend, Mia Farrow.
