New video has surfaced of a car suspected of being involved in the still-unsolved deadly shooting on Interstate 95 in Foxborough, Massachusetts, earlier this month, and officials are asking for the public's tracking the car down.
The car, possibly a modified Hyundai Sonata, can be seen in the new video, released Tuesday by state police and the Norfolk District Attorney's Office, speeding in the right lane of the highway moments after the shooting is believed to have taken place.

"Thanks to the public's help, we have tried to identify what we believe to be a vehicle that may have been involved in this incident," District Attorney Michael Morrissey said in a video statement. "If you're able to provide information on the location of this vehicle or its owner, please contact the state police. Do not attempt to approach the vehicle or its occupants."
Authorities have previously said that the driver of a dark-colored sedan traveling south on I-95 just before 10 p.m. Saturday fired multiple rounds into a black Mercedes, killing 37-year-old Justin Parker. Parker's car then hit a silver Lexus SUV, which crashed into the woods. He was taken to Sturdy Memorial Hospital, where he died; the family in the SUV survived.

Authorities had asked the public for help finding dashcam footage as they searched for the gunman. Morrissey's office had asked anyyone with video footage from between 9 and 10 p.m. along the I-95 corridor from Waltham to the Rhode Island line, or along the Route 3/Interstate 93 corridor from Boston or Weymouth, through Milton and Canton to I-95 south.
The driver is believed to have merged from one of those directions onto I-95 south around 9:20 p.m.
Authorities haven't shared any information on what's believed to have led to the shooting.
Friends have said that Parker was a father and lived in North Attleborough with his daughter. They couldn't believe that he was killed in a shooting on the highway, or that the gunman was still at large.
"The fact that it happened while they were driving, that's what's crazy to me," one of Parker's friends told NBC10 Boston over the phone. "I know he's trying to be a good father. I feel terrible for what happened."
