A UPS driver escaped serious injuries after officials say a suspect approached his delivery truck and riddled it with gunfire Monday afternoon.
Officials say it was around 1:38pm as the UPS driver was making a delivery in the 500 block of Randolph Road in Newport News when the suspect approached the truck from the front and fired numerous shots.
The driver was not struck by the gunfire, but did suffer a minor injury while trying to get out of the truck.
The suspect in the shooting is described as a black male, 5'6" tall, weighing 200+ pounds. He was last seen wearing a red ball cap and a white shirt. Authorities think he left the scene in a maroon, 1990's model Nissan.
Police say it appears all but one of the gunshots hit the hood area of the truck and the other shot went through the passenger side windshield.
Anyone with information on this shooting is asked to call the Crimeline at 1-888-LOCK-U-UP.

This driver is out of my center. As further details are learned I'll post them here.
