bullet ricocheted through the windscreen?
-
Seeing as no one has been apprehended or stepped forward how can the police say it was random or an accident?
-
There is nowhere even close to there that anyone should be using a firearm!

Apart from armed police of course.

Could also have been a rock from on coming traffic. Who actually knows, maybe just more propaganda, though the hole did look pretty round.

Who were the police shooting at

I suspect there was a lot of evidence pointing to it being a bullet that went through the screen but as another poster said - wtf was anybody thinking when firing a rifle in that area??

The tone of the Stuff article is very low key...makes me think police involvement.

We'll probably never know.

Can remember same type of incident in good old USA many years ago, projectile entered car thru partially open drivers window striking the driver behind the ear. When finally solved, bullet came from a fishing boat a couple of miles out to sea. Shot had been fired at a seagull, one chance in many millions of ending up where it did.
-
Similar to when the American army had a machine gun range on long island with a safety zone that extended out to sea a few miles. Fisherman new and stayed well clear.
Changing to a boat tailed projectile added considerably to the effective range, and the army only found this out when a fishing boat about 2 miles outside the former exclusion zone got hit.

Passed the car on the side of the motorway at the time, looked like a break down.
A lot of houses back onto the motorway prior to that overbridge or even if it was around there.
Hope they are ok.

The only reason why they were able to put it together was because the fisherman came forward. Wasn't it refreshing back then when people were still willing to own up and take responsibility for their own fuck-ups.

Your memories better than mine.
