The victim confronted the suspects, and they pointed a weapon at him. He then fired at the suspects with his own weapon, potentially hitting one of them, the sheriff's office said.

The man left the scene in the stolen truck while the woman got back into the white sedan and left. The sedan is a 2017 white Hyundai Sonata with license plate LLDOLPH.
