Teenage boys, aged 13 and 14, arrested after shooting at passing vehicles with realistic-looking airsoft gun
Eugene, OR – Eugene Police responded to a call reporting two teenage boys shooting at passing vehicles from the 4th level of the Overpark parking structure located at 1000 Oak Street. The suspects, aged 13 and 14, were seen wearing black clothing while engaging in the act.
