(Shutterstock / ZikG) CERRITOS, CA — Authorities Thursday are investigating a recent series of BB or pellet gun shootings that damaged several vehicles across Southland freeways. Another one occurred Thursday morning in the Cerritos area. Though there is no evidence the shootings are connected, they rattled the public. Shattered windows and tales of terrified drivers in the Inland Empire and Los Angeles and Orange Counties have made headlines since April, and each case is being investigated according to the CHP. "We're still trying to figure out if they are pellet guns or just a shattered widow," said CHP Officer Amber Wright.
