While in route Deputies learned that the actor a Hispanic male had been shot by employees of the business and had fled the location in his vehicle.

Upon Deputies arrival, they learned that no employee on location was injured or required medical attention. Deputies interviewed witnesses and learned that a Hispanic male had come to the business upset about his car which had been repaired by the owner of Denali Motor Sports. An argument ensued between the owner and the Hispanic male suspect, which then turned into a physical altercation. Once the physical altercation was over the suspect returned to the vehicle he arrived in and retrieved a handgun then began discharging the firearm toward the business and employees.
