POLK COUNTY, Fla. — The Polk County Sheriff's Office is asking for help in their investigation of a woman who was hit by a bullet while driving on I-4 on Wednesday.
On Feb. 19, around 3:47 p.m., PCSO said a woman called 911 saying something came through the driver's side window of her truck and grazed her head while she was heading west on I-4, near the SR 559 exit.
Polk County Fire Rescue took the woman to a local hospital and she was treated for her injuries. She has since been released.
According to PCSO, they believe a bullet was fired from someone heading eastbound on I-4 at the same time.
If you were traveling on I-4 in either direction at that time and saw anything suspicious, please contact PCSO at 863-298-6200.
