BEREA, Ohio (AP) — A $1 million bond has been set in Ohio for a man who has pleaded not guilty to charges that he randomly shot at moving cars as he drove through the Cleveland suburbs.

Sixty-five-year-old Paul Hausmann entered his plea at an arraignment Friday to charges of carrying concealed weapons and felonious assault. He was arraigned by video hookup from the Cuyahoga (ky-uh-HOH’-guh) County jail in Cleveland.

He is suspected of shooting at four vehicles in Berea and a fifth in Strongsville, his hometown, between mid-August and mid-December. No one was hurt.

Hausmann was arrested Tuesday based on two tips from residents and a police officer seeing a car that matched a tipster’s description.
