Through investigation, deputies learned the victims had been parked at a car wash in the 14200 block of Hesperia Road when the suspect, later identified as Dahani Chance Evans, approached their vehicle. The victims knew the suspect and had issues with him recently, prompting them to attempt to leave. As they began to drive, the suspect fired a gun several times at their vehicle.
