Commerce City Police are looking for a shooting suspect that got out of a truck and shot a driver stopped in traffic.

Police say it happened Tuesday during rush hour, around 5:15 p.m. off East 56th Avenue and Brighton Boulevard, near the Suncor refinery.

When officers arrived, they found a victim inside a red Suzuki sedan. The man was taken to the hospital with serious injuries.

Investigators say he was stopped in traffic when a red Ford Ranger with a white topper shell on the back pulled up.

A man got out, shot into the sedan and hit the driver, before fleeing in his truck.
