A woman driving on Interstate 95 in North Miami-Dade told state troopers she suffered a sliced forehead Tuesday when she found herself in the middle of a rolling shootout between people in a Mercedes and a Lamborghini.

The shootout happened around 1:15 a.m. near the Northwest 95th Street exit, according to the Florida Highway Patrol.

The woman told FHP that as she rolled south on I-95 in her Nissan Altima, she saw a black Mercedes sedan and a dark green Lamborghini SUV speeding toward her while the people inside traded gunfire.

As they passed her, the FHP said, the woman said a shot from the Mercedes hit the front windshield, sending glass into her upper right forehead.

Anyone who knows anything about the shooting or the cars involved can contact the FHP at *347 (*FHP).
