Drive-by shooters were teenage gangs who drove around the streets of Hill Valley in 1985A, terrorizing and even killing some of the residents.
History
The chalk outlines of two victims of a previous drive-by shooting, cordoned off by yellow POLICE LINE - DO NOT CROSS tape, were spotted in Lyon Estates by Marty McFly.
A gang of drive-by shooters drove a Buick Skylark convertible, opening fire on the Strickland residence with Mossberg 500 and AK-47 guns. They were fired at in retaliation by former Hill Valley High School principal Stanford S. Strickland, who called them "slackers" and fired back in retaliation before proceeding to chase them. Their distraction aided Marty, who was being threatened by the shotgun-wielding Strickland, to get away.
