The driver told CHP officers that he had entered the on-ramp to the freeway when a car drove up next to him and a gunman fired five shots.

CHP officers have yet to release any information about the suspect's vehicle or the circumstances behind the shooting. The Mowry Ave. on-ramp was closed for 2 1/2 hours while officers search the shooting scene for evidence. The morning commute was not impacted by the shooting.

They asked anyone who was on northbound 880 in area at the time of the shooting to contact them at 510-489-1500 if you have any information.
