Neighborhood shooter sought in Medford Police are asking citizens to help identify the persons who terrorized an east Medford neighborhood with a gun early Sunday morning. Around 4:45 a.m., residents in the Eagle Trace subdivision area reported hearing gun shots, according to Lt. Mike Moran. Using a .22-caliber rifle, the suspects shot out a house window and a streetlight and damaged a sign, he said. It is believed at least two persons were involved because witnesses told police they saw shots coming from the passenger side of a vehicle, said Moran. Witnesses described seeing a small, dark-colored pickup with a canopy or a two-toned Jeep Cherokee in the area at the time. Anyone with identifying information about persons in the Roxy Ann Peak area late Saturday night or early Sunday morning are asked to call Medford police at 770-4783 or 774-2250.   Obituaries | Sports | Business | Classifieds |  Tempo | Prime Times | So Oregon Sites | Outdoor Journal | Subscribe | Contact | Movies | Advertise | Real Estate Showcase | Archive  | Editorials | Letters to the editor | Religion | Wake-up Call | NIE | Cyber Chef | Job Network | So Oregon Weather | WSJ Northwest | Forums | AP Wire | AP Money | F.A.Q. | Awards Ottaway Newspapers, Inc.
