15 Freeway Shooting Cajon Pass, 2 Persons Critically Injured From Deadly Shooting While Driving

Cajon Pass Freeway, Shooting –  A troubling occurrence occurred on the northbound 15 highway near Kenwood Avenue on December 15, 2023, that resulted in gunshot wounds to two people. A male suspect, described as an adult with tattoos, pulled up next to the victims’ car at around 10:59 a.m. and opened fire through the window. According to early reports, there was gunfire that injured both the driver and the passenger, leaving one with gunshot wounds to the chest and the other to the arm.

The victims quickly pulled over close to the scales in the Cajon Pass area after the incident to request help and medical attention. Two helicopters were sent in to take the injured individuals to a trauma center so they could receive emergency medical assistance in response to the dire scenario. In order to fully investigate the event, the California Highway Patrol quickly intervened and blocked down the northbound 15 freeway at Kenwood Avenue.

Law enforcement followed the suspect’s car on the 15 Freeway and tracked it toward the Barstow area, according to communications from scanners. Around 11:45 a.m., Barstow authorities were able to apprehend two suspects from the car, which aided the continuing investigation. Given the severity of the traffic congestion caused by the shutdown of the highway lanes near Kenwood Avenue, a Sig Alert was issued.

To lessen traffic hiccups, all lanes were restored by midday and the Sig Alert was withdrawn. As of the most recent update, no additional information about the incident was readily available, thus law enforcement officials are still looking into the circumstances behind the shooting.
