Authorities released the name of a suspect Monday in two dozen highway sniper shootings that have left one woman dead and unnerved motorists for months.

The Franklin County Sheriff's Office said Charles A. McCoy Jr., 28, of Columbus, should be considered armed and dangerous.

"We believe he bought another gun."

he's compensating for the inadequacy of his car by the size of his gun and the number of people whom he terrifies? And, of course, it goes without saying that if he only had a machete, he'd never have made the news. This guy is too much a coward to take on anyone mano a mano -- but with a gun, you don't need courage...
