Road rage apparent cause of shooting that injured toddler

FERGUSON, Mo. (AP) — A toddler is recovering from gunshot wounds after a shooting in the St. Louis County town of Ferguson that was apparently spurred by road rage.

KSDK-TV reports that police are still searching for the gunman following the shooting that happened Friday.

The girl was shot in an arm and a leg.

Police Chief Jason Armstrong says the father told detectives that he and his daughter were driving on Bermuda Road.

The father said he cut off the driver of a van that was going too slow. The van driver got out and started shooting.

The father wasn’t hurt.

The child was treated at a hospital and is now home.
