State police are looking for suspects after two separate vehicles were struck by rocks while passing under the same Interstate 95 overpass in Sidney.

On Wednesday night, a pickup carrying a couple and their 8-week-old infant was traveling north on the interstate. When it passed under the Dinsmore Road overpass in Sidney, a rock hit the windshield of the single-cab truck, shattering the glass and covering everyone inside with shards.

The rock itself was embedded in the windshield, which stopped it from flying into the cab of the truck. The baby was taken to the hospital to have small shards of glass removed from her ear, police said.

Another northbound vehicle was struck by an unidentified object while passing under that same overpass on the night of Aug. 16, according to police.

“It is believed the suspects are in the immediate area of the overpass,” state police said in a Thursday social media post.
