The Jefferson County Sheriff's Office is investigating a series of rock-throwing incidents that happened between July 19 and August 4.

According to the sheriff's office, deputies are investigating six rock-throwing incidents where rocks were thrown at moving vehicles from another vehicle traveling in the opposite direction. 

Deputies say the incidents happened primarily in the evening or early in the morning in the southern cooperated Jefferson County along W. Quincy Avenue, W. Belleview Avenue, W. Peakview Avenue, W. Bowles Avenue, and W. Coalmine Avenue.

No injuries have been reported from the six vehicles that were hit by rocks as deputies say in one case, a rock stuck the hood of a car, bounced into the windshield, and shattered it. 

The rocks that were thrown led to damage to hoods, grills and along the side of vehicles affected. 

The suspected vehicle has been described as a smaller, four-door sedan, but the color reported has varied, according to the sheriff's office.
