A man riding pillion on a motorcycle fired several shots at one of three cars carrying eight people at Km30.6 of the Damansara-Puchong Expressway (LDP) near Puchong Gateway early today, injuring a man and a woman, police said.

Subang Jaya Police chief ACP Yahaya Ramli said the man was injured in the right thigh and the woman, in the right hand, in the shooting which occurred at 5.10 am.
