Not a criminal mastermind

Suspect Arrested in Virginia Shootings

State police swarmed the overpasses along the interstate as the shootings were reported and collected shell casings from the Greenwood Station Road overpass. As morning broke, a crucial lead emerged in Waynesboro.

Employees at the DuPont Community Credit Union found that a window, wall and sign had been shot. A surveillance camera had captured images of an AMC Gremlin, a distinctive and long since discontinued car, in the credit union parking lot between midnight and 2 a.m., Waynesboro police Sgt. Kelly Walker said.

Police located an orange 1974 Gremlin late yesterday, apparently abandoned along Route 29 in northern Albemarle County, near the Greene County line, Flaherty said this morning. He also said that Woodson owned such a car and that "ballistic evidence was also recovered from the car."


An orange 1974 Gremlin. Not the most unobtrusive vehicle for a crime spree.
