Someone shot a moving vehicle in Clackamas County early Monday morning, and the sheriff's office is asking the public to "use extreme caution" as their investigation continues.

This is the fifth report of a vehicle being hit by gunfire in the past two months, the Clackamas County Sheriff's Office said, but it hasn't had any reports since Aug. 7.

The latest shooting happened about 3:20 a.m. Monday near the intersection of the Canby-Marquam Highway and S Barnards Road.

The driver, Alexander Haynes, said his passenger window broke while driving on the road, but he was unsure of how it happened. Deputies later found that a bullet had hit the driver's sun visor, "missing the victim's head by mere inches."

"I saw the bullet hole when I got out of the car from where I was picking up my girlfriend ... found out the bullet impacted the visor above my head," Haynes told KATU.

The sheriff's office said they are urging the public to use extreme caution while in the area as their investigation continues.

If you have any helpful information in this case, call the sheriff's office at (503) 723-4949. If you are in immediate danger, they say, don't hesitate to call 9-1-1.
