HAMPTON, Va. - One woman was wounded Monday shortly after 3 p.m. when she was caught in the middle of a shooting that involved a total of three vehicles on Interstate 64, according to a report on WTKR.com.

The shooting happened around the Settlers Landing area of I-64. State police said two men inside a gold-colored Toyota Camry shot at another vehicle and continued to drive eastbound on I-64.

They exited the interstate at Mallory Street and continued to shoot, police said. While they were shooting, they hit the woman who was inside of a white Honda. She stopped and reported the shooting to police. She was then taken to the hospital.

Officials said the injured woman was not the intended target. They said the two men were aiming at another vehicle.

The victim was taken to Riverside Hospital with non-life threatening injuries, but there has been no update on the extent of her injuries.

The suspects are still at large.
