Gunfire broke out while Charles McMillon Jr., his son, and childhood friend Kendrick Clemons were dropping off a U-Haul truck in Tallahassee, Florida.
A crazy a$$ older couple came toward them, both pointing guns in their direction and ordered the Black men not to move, but McMillon sped off in his truck.
The two shooters, Wallace Fountain, 77, and his wife, Beverly Fountain, 72, own the strip mall where the incident took place and were reportedly staking it out inside another U-Haul truck.
According to the Tallahassee Democrat, the couple said they were having problems with people stealing gas. McMillon and Clemons say they were profiled by vigilantes and never given a chance to explain why they were there.
The Fountains were arrested and charged with three counts of aggravated assault without intent to kill.
