According to deputies, both victims were struck in the arm by gunfire. The victims told deputies the bullets just “grazed them,” and refused to go to the hospital.

The victims told deputies they were driving northbound on Radio Road when they were cut off by a 4 door passenger car at the intersection of Radio Road and Shademoor Drive.

Heistand, who was driving the vehicle, honked his horn at the other car. The suspect vehicle began to follow them, speeding up beside them, driving against the flow of traffic, and opened fire on the victims.
