Dalrymple said Sunday night that the suspect allegedly fired from a ledge about 30 feet down from a cliff by Exit 49. To find the location, Dalrymple said he had to hold onto a tree and look down to see the site to find the location.

Earlier, Acciardo described the shooting as \"sniper-like\" and said it was not the result of road rage. He said investigators do not believe the shooter knew any of the victims or had contact with them before the shooting.

Up to 60 members of law enforcement searched the area of the shooting until 3 a.m. Sunday before halting the search due to safety concerns, saying it was pitch black on the highway and describing the terrain where the search was being conducted as very rugged.

More than 150 individuals were involved in the search for Couch on Sunday, with efforts set to resume on Monday morning, according to Root.

The FBI, the U.S. Marshal's Service and the federal Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives are assisting local authorities in the investigation, officials said.

A motive for the shooting remained under investigation.

Kentucky Gov. Andy Beshear said in a statement on X on Saturday that he was monitoring the situation.

In an interview Sunday on ABC's \"Good Morning America,\" Christina Dinoto said she was driving with a friend southbound on I-75, heading to Tennessee, when the shooting erupted.

\"All of a sudden, we just heard this loud, deafening sound,\" Dinoto said. \"And my ear, my right ear, started ringing, and we didn't know what the sound was, but we both looked at each other and said, was that a gunshot?\"

Dinoto said that when she pulled off the interstate in Knoxville, she discovered damage to her vehicle that she suspects was caused by a bullet that may have ricocheted off another car.

The Kentucky shooting came less than a week after six people were injured in six shootings that occurred on Sept. 2 on Interstate 5 in Washington state between 8:26 p.m. and 11:01 p.m. local time, officials previously said. A suspect whose vehicle was sought in connection with several of the shootings was arrested in the Tacoma area on Sept. 3, police said.
