vehicles to the shoulder.
There were several witnesses to what had happened. No one knew whether road rage had caused the shooting or if the whole thing had been a conflict between rival gangs, but everyone had an opinion and a slightly different version of events. The one thing they all agreed on was that the people in the white Dodge had been shooting at the Nissan, and the people in the Nissan had been shooting back.
“Did anyone get the plate number of either vehicle?” a patrolman asked.

They talked for less than a minute when Lorna heard him say, “A glimpse of the future,” which made her wonder what was going on.
