Police Chief Brandon Gurley told Channel 2 Investigative Reporter Mark Winne that someone walking down the sidewalk noticed someone he knew driving down the road, so he began shooting.
The driver of that car returned fire, and then stayed on scene to speak with the police.
Winne found the car with several bullet holes and shot out windows.
Police say no one was hurt, but a car and the wall of a building were damaged.
“Right now, we’re very fortunate we don’t have anyone or any victim who was injured or who was struck with a bullet. Only property is damaged,” Lt. Travis Nguyen said.
Investigators started a manhunt for the shooter who was walking on the sidewalk, but have since ended it.
Neither shooter’s identity has been released.
