Someone's new hobby is making a mess for one driver in Sherborn.

A driver in the North Main Street/Eliot Street area at around 8 p.m. last Saturday reported that his car was hit by a paintball while heading south. He heard the sound, and stopped to find yellow paint on one of the doors.

The victim told police that it may have been someone standing in a driveway. Officers checked the area on foot, and spoke to several residents in the neighborhood, but were unable to locate this paintball sniper.
