CROZET, Va. — Authorities believe a pair of troublemaking teens were behind a series of random shootings in an area where memories of the Washington-area sniper shootings six years ago are still fresh.

Investigators on Friday charged Slade Allen Woodson, 19, of Afton, after authorities stormed a farm and fired at an unidentified man carrying a gun. Authorities also charged a 16-year-old from Crozet, whose name also was not released.

"Everyone can, I think, rest compared to the state that we were in overnight," State Police Superintendent Steven Flaherty said at a news conference Friday in Charlottesville.

Investigators said they now believe the shootings that slightly injured two drivers were part of a long night of random gunfire in which the pair also shot at a credit union and a residence.

Woodson was charged in the shootings at the home and the credit union, as well as shootings along Interstate 64. He and the other teen were charged with two felony counts of malicious wounding, one count of attempted malicious wounding, two counts of the use of a firearm in a felony and five counts of maliciously shooting at an occupied vehicle.

They were being held pending bond hearings Monday.

According to police, the shootings began early Thursday in central Virginia. Gunshots hit two cars, a van, a tractor-trailer and an unoccupied dump truck. Shots also were fired at the credit union and a residence in Waynesboro.

Investigators promptly shut down a 20-mile stretch of I-64 between Waynesboro and Charlottesville, home to the University of Virginia, reopening it around dawn.

Surveillance video at the credit union captured a light-colored AMC Gremlin around the time shots were fired there, and police found the car Thursday afternoon, abandoned along a road.

Authorities determined that Woodson owns a vehicle similar to the car in the video and accelerated a manhunt that wrapped up in a pre-dawn raid Friday.

State and county police moved in on a farm just before 5 a.m., shooting a man who confronted them with a handgun, police said. Woodson was taken into custody, and the man was taken to a hospital, where he was in stable condition. His identity wasn't released.

Police said they recovered a gun from the house that is the same caliber as most of the ballistic evidence from the shootings; a search warrant indicated police were looking for a .22-caliber weapon.

At Woodson's home in Afton, a handwritten statement was duct-taped to a truck.

"All we can say is that we love our boy an(d) we hope the incident on I-64 is not related to him," the note stated. "We also want to say our hearts are with the innocent victim that was shot by police during our sons arrest."

People at the home declined to be interviewed.
