The Spokane Police Division is asking for the public’s help to solve several drive-by shootings, where the suspects are using a rapid fire BB gun.

In the past two weeks the Spokane Police have received over a dozen reports of suspects shooting from the passenger side window of a vehicle striking pedestrians, homes and vehicles. These reckless actions have injured several people and caused thousands of dollars in property damage.

The suspects are in their late teens or twenties. Two are described as white males and a third was described as a light skinned black male.

The vehicle is similar to a White 1998-2005 Chev Blazer or GMC Jimmy with Washington plates.

Please see the attached video clip and photos of the suspect vehicle.

If anyone has information they are asked to call Crime Check at 456.2233.
