A 28-year-old father and his 3-year-old son were shot in their car in Highland, sheriff’s officials say.

The gunfire was reported at 5:37 p.m. Monday, Sept. 22, along the 7600 block of Bonnie Street, roughly a half-mile north of San Bernardino International Airport, said sheriff’s spokeswoman Jodi Miller.

The victims were pulled over talking to a pedestrian when the shooters pulled up and opened fire puncturing their grayish Ford Crown Victoria with bullets and leaving both victims with non-life-threatening gunshot wounds, a San Bernardino County Sheriff’s news release stated.

Paramedics rushed the victims to a hospital where they were treated and released, said Jodi Miller, spokesperson for the Sheriff’s Department.

Investigators were trying to piece together the circumstances that led to the shooting and identify the assailants early Tuesday, though they had very few leads, Miller said.

“The need for the public’s assistance is huge in this investigation,” she said.

She urged anybody who may have seen anything unusual in the area to call the Sheriff’s dispatch at 909-387-8313.

“Regardless of how minor (the detail), regardless of how insignificant they think it is, it could make a difference in this investigation,” she said.
