Thursday a nut blocked both north bound lanes on I-79 at the Weston, WV exit (99) and started shooting at cars with a scoped rifle. These nuts seem to want 15 min. of fame and the media is giving it to you. One deputy was hit in the leg and the perp was put down. Since he didn't have an AR-15 it didn't fir the desired matrix. Exit 99 is where I get of I-79 to go to my friend's camp. https://www.abc27.com/news/identity-of-suspect-in-i-79-shooting-released/

In the pic, he appears to be using a savage 99 of all things.

The weird part is that he drove from East Bumfuk, Pennsylvania to Weston, West Virginia in order to shoot the place up. Looks like Pittsburg is closer.

That is a really odd occurrence, there are so many questions about this that will never be answered.

Nobody else lost their life, and one injury. Could have been a whole lot worse. Strange things happen. I hope Justice or the legislature doesn't use this to try to ban hunting "assault" rifles.

I was thinking 10/22 or Marlin Model 60? Looks like a pencil barrel on a .22 rimfire...
