The man says he noticed a suspicious looking car when he pulled up to his home near Plummer Street and Encino Avenue. That's when a man opened fire, shooting at his car as he drove away. He was not hit, but bullets did strike his car and a nearby tree.

The suspect then got into the backseat of a sedan that also sped off in the same direction.

"Obviously, naturally, my kids are terrified that they had to witness this. My wife, she's very distraught. It's a very unsafe situation. It's a very unnerving situation," the man said.
