ABC7 News spoke by phone with a woman who says two victims of this shooting, who were bleeding and running from the freeway, ran up to her van and begged her for help.
"It really took me back to when George Floyd said I can't breathe, to listen to that and hear, 'I'm bleeding out, I'm bleeding out.' I knew that these young men needed help," said Leisa Baker.
That Good Samaritan says she used towels to try to stop the bleeding of one of the victims.
She says the two victims told her another man and a woman in the car with them were also shot.
The eastbound traffic was shut down for several hours and cars were being diverted off the interstate at Golf Links Road.
Officials say there is currently no suspect information or suspect vehicle information at this time.
