Update: Man arrested in I-64 shootings
Related: Sniper shootings on I-64
The arrest was issued on Yonder Hill farm in rural Virginia near Crozet in Ablemarle County, according to Foxnews.com.
At least one person was shot during the execution of the search warrant on the premises of the farm, and the victim was airlifted to UVa's medical center for emergency surgery, said Col. Steven Flaherty of the Virginia State Police in an announcement this morning.
Woodson was charged with two felony crimes of shooting into a domestic residence, and damaging property. He has not yet been charged for the shootings on I-64, said Col. Flaherty in a statement.
While FBI SWAT team members encircled the house on the property, a man with a handgun approached the SWAT team, and was taken down. Police have not yet made a concrete connection between the second gunman and Woodson, or the I-64 shootings. His name and condition have not been announced.
The police are still looking for a second suspect.
Woodson was previously arrested in January 2007 for stealing two cars and lighting them on fire, said WCAV-TV of Charlottesville.
Police were investigating whether the I-64 firings were related to two separate attacks.
This morning, there was a shooting at the Dupont Community Credit Union bank in Waynesboro that occurred between midnight and 2 a.m. Some windows, the building, and an empty vehicle were hit with bullets, but no one was injured.
The second shooting was at a house in a Waynesboro neighborhood around the same time.
Yesterday, highway authorities were searching for an AMC Gremlin of light color that was caught in video surveillance that they believed was tied to the shooting. They found an abandoned AMC Gremlin on US-29, later identified to be owned by Woodson, near the Ablemarle and Greene Counties border late Thursday. The vehicle matches the description a witness to the bank crime outlined, and also the surveillance video.
