Last update: February 18, 2008 - 8:54 PM

Investigators are pursuing several good leads in Sunday's drive-by shooting of a man driving on Interstate 35W in south Minneapolis, authorities said Monday.

The man was northbound near Lake Street when another vehicle pulled alongside and someone in it fired shots. He was taken to Hennepin County Medical Center with non-life threatening injuries.

State Patrol Lt. Mark Peterson said the public has no reason to be concerned for their safety. No other information was released Monday.
