MAN SHOOTS CARJACKER WHO JUMPED IN DRIVER’S SEAT WHILE HE PUMPED GAS

A man shot a carjacker who tried to steal his car while he was pumping gas at a North Side gas station, police said.

The car owner got in the passenger side and fought with the man as the suspect put the car in reverse and hit the gas, driving over a sidewalk. That’s when the car owner pulled out a gun and shot the suspect multiple times, police said.

That suspect was transported to a local hospital in critical condition. The car owner was not injured.
