Default Shooting in L.A., new A8 from Michigan involved...

Keep seeing a report on the news today about a car to car shooting that ended at a mall in Chino Hills. They are showing a new black A8 with Michigan plates stopped behind an ex-police Crown Vic which was driven by the "bad guys." No one was killed, but apparently the guy who did the shooting was an off-duty police officer. When they mention him, they keep showing the A8 as if that was his car.
This is most bizarre. Any new Audi in SoCal with Michigan plates is usually a manufacturer car being tested out... which adds to the confusion as to what happened here.

Obviously, AoA is testing this car out there in the wild wild west.

That is the car, black with beige interior, same rims. The reports are stating it was being driven by an off-duty policeman. Very odd story...
