Statement just released from the McCain campaign:

Perez was shot while riding in the back seat of her parent's SUV in Highland Park on Monday. According to the Los Angeles Police Department, the assailant opened fire on another motorist, Fabian Aguirre, 33, of Highland Park, who had stopped his pickup alongside the SUV.
