The Cadillac then moved to a parking spot adjacent to the victim’s vehicle and the Lexus parked near it. As the three victims left the business, two people got out of the Lexus and “ambushed” them, police said. They shot at both of the men, hitting Chester’s brother in the chest, and the juvenile in the arm.
Chester got into a fistfight with two of the men, during which the Lexus pulled forward as Chester moved in front of it. The Lexus hit him before hitting a tree. Police said the vehicle was later reported stolen.
The driver of the Lexus then got out of the vehicle and joined the fight. Chester was able to get up and run across the street but the fight continued and Chester was shot by two of the three suspects. Chester fell to the ground and was shot several more times by the suspect, according to the report.
