CLAYTON • A shooting near Washington University that left a woman injured and prompted a campus alert may have stemmed from a road rage incident.

Investigators were looking for a man driving a black SUV Wednesday afternoon, saying he fired shots at the occupants of a silver car on Forsyth Boulevard near the campus' student union building.

A woman inside the car was struck in the forearm and treated at the scene. She was later taken to a hospital. An email sent to members of the Washington University community identified the victim as an employee of Café Bon Appétit in the Washington University School of Medicine.

Meanwhile, the shooter made a U-turn on Forsyth and continued onto Skinker Boulevard.

Police did not say how many shots were fired.

As of late Thursday morning, police had not made an arrest.

Clayton Police Chief Kevin Murphy said the shooting wasn't random.

“The victims indicated that this was a road rage incident,” Murphy said. “We are investigating that as a possibility.”
