acquaintance. He was sitting in the passenger seat.

and pointed a hand gun at him. The armed suspect demanded the victim exit the vehicle

people a few days earlier. They were standing across the street from him so the victim

walked into a nearby store and asked employees to call the police.

The victim walked back out and thought the suspects may have gotten on a mass transit

vehicle and crossed the street to get a closer look. But, once across the street, the suspects

noticed the victim and started laughing at him. Then, one suspect took something out of

his pocket, which caused the victim to pull out a knife for protection.

The suspects continued to laugh at the victim and walked away, but one suspect suddenly

turned back and used a BB gun to fire approximately 20 shots at the victim, who was not

struck by the shots.
