The multijurisdictional task force is continuing its investigation into a series of 24 known shooting incidents that occurred between Oct. 16 and Oct. 27, 2012. 

Police said the man is believed to have fired a handgun at moving cars from a vehicle. 

Contrary to some media reports, only three of the 24 reported incidents have occurred on I-96. The remaining incidents occurred on trunk lines and local streets. The following agencies have received reports of shooting incidents:

Wixom Police Department – 10 incidents
Ingham County Sheriff’s Office – 8 incidents
Livingston County Sheriff’s Office – 3 incidents
Oakland County Sheriff’s Office – 2 incidents
Shiawassee County Sheriff’s Office – 1 incident

Police have received more than 2,200 tips. Approximately 1,300 came in after the FBI and ATF increased the reward to $102,000 for information leading to an arrest and conviction. 

Investigators have interviewed numerous people and investigated numerous tips, but no arrest has been made.

The suspect, who remains at large, is described as a white male in his late twenties or early thirties.  One witness described him as “clean-shaven.”  However, police said it is possible he may change his appearance.

Information can discreetly be provided by calling 1-800-SPEAK UP (1-800-773-2587) or 248-624-6114

Why is he called the I-96 shooter when only 3 of the 24 incidents have taken place on I-96?

Who really cares what he's called, hartland? Let's just get the low-life and lock him up for the rest of his sick days.

Who cares? The people altering their travel routes because they think they're in some kind of danger traveling on I-96 probably care. It's inaccurate reporting, which is pretty standard nowadays.

For clarification: several outlets started referring to this person at the I-96 shooter because the shootings happen along the I-96 corridor. Prior to those on I-96, I and others in the area were referring to him at the Wixom area shooter... since 12 of the 24 were there and that's where it started.
