A 21-year-old man was stopped at a stop sign at the intersection of Warren Avenue and Summer Street when a man he recognized fired three rounds from a handgun at him. One of the shots struck the driver's-side mirror of his 1988 Plymouth Horizon. The victim told police he fled, stopping to call 911 from a home on South Avenue, but was unable to wait for a cruiser.
