COLUMBUS, Ohio (AP)--At least a dozen times a day, Edward Sparks drives his tractor-trailer along the stretch of beltway where authorities are investigating the shootings of 11 vehicles.
``You're constantly looking,'' he said.
After the long holiday weekend, commuters returned Monday to the five-mile stretch of Interstate 270 where the shootings began earlier this year, most in the past two months.
Terry Daugherty, of Pikeville, Ky., passed through the stretch of highway Monday on his way home from visiting family for Thanksgiving. The shootings were a topic of discussion during the holiday, and relatives told him to be careful during his drive.
``Life goes on. You've still got to live, travel and visit,'' he said while buying coffee and candy at a gas station. ``You don't want to go through the heart of the city. You can't shut down the freeway for a couple of shootings.''
Authorities did not connect the cases until a 62-year-old woman was killed Tuesday while riding in a car driven by a friend; she was the only person hit in any of the shootings.
