She was the vehicle’s driver. The man exited the car and then fired shots into three passing vehicles. A 43-year-old Ferndale woman was struck in the thigh. She was in stable condition Friday at a hospital. The shootings occurred along the Pleasant Ridge and Royal Oak city limits. The suspect lives in Troy. His mother was a Southfield resident.
