At 10:40 on September 13 LPPD officers went to Wilmott Avenue and Santa Ana Street about a shooting. A gold Chevy Silverado pursued and fired upon another vehicle.
Then the man and woman called the police as well to confirm their recent experience. As they slept in their vehicle, their dog began to bark at a man approaching their vehicle.
The man retreated to his Silverado. Then he and his buddy drove up, “pointing a gun at the pair.”
