PIERCE COUNTY - A rash of drive-by shootings that targeted five homes in Graham over an hour-and-a-half span early Thursday morning has residents fearing for their safety.

No one was hurt, but residents say several cars got bruised with bullet holes and some shell casings hit sides of their houses.

"This is ridiculous that we have to live like this, you know, especially moving out here out into the country and you think you're safe," said resident Andrew Devine.

Pierce County deputies are investigating the case, but say they only have a vague description of the suspect's pickup truck to go on.

Pierce County Crimestoppers is offering a $1,000 reward for information leading to the arrest and conviction of those behind the drive-by shootings.
