Authorities said the shooting was likely not a road rage incident and was not random. The sheriff's office said there is no perceived threat to the community, though fell short of saying if any arrests were made. 

"Preliminary indications are that the shooting was not a road rage incident and investigators do not believe it was random; therefore, they believe there is no ongoing risk to the community at large," the sheriff's office said in an update provided to media around noon Wednesday.
