The driver blew his horn and a verbal argument took place. The ATV and blue dirt bike continued south on Ritchie and the victim followed them.

As they were driving, the victims heard a loud noise and believed the driver of the black dirt bike threw something at their vehicle. Upon arriving at their home and after a closer inspection, the victims located what they believed to be a bullet hole in the driver’s side rear door and the projectile was found inside the center console. 

Neither of the passengers inside the vehicle was physically injured as a result of the shooting.
