CHP Searching for Suspect in Highway Violence

An Encinitas man, his wife and two small children were traveling westbound on SR-78 from Vista Way

A family of four was traveling along a Southern California highway when they were cut off by another driver and their SUV's back window shattered.

California Highway Patrol officers are looking for the vehicle that initially cut off the family along State Route 78 in Oceanside around 7:30 p.m. Sunday.

A 32-year-old Encinitas man, his wife and two small children were traveling westbound on SR-78 from Vista Way in a Honda Pilot.

They told CHP that a dark gray Chevrolet sedan cut them off.

The sedan began following the family, according to the CHP.

As both vehicles reached the exit to northbound Interstate 5, the sedan drove along the transition road to I-5 while the Pilot continued on SR-78.

That’s when the Honda Pilot’s rear window shattered.

The driver told CHP that he did not hear any gunshots.

No one was injured in the vehicle.

Investigators are now looking for that dark grey sedan. Anyone with information can contact Oceanside CHP office at 760-757-1675.
