Bullock recounted, “I didn’t see the gun hit the ground until he picked it up. He pointed it at me, and I couldn’t make out his words; I was screaming.” Subsequently, as the suspect was returning to his motorcycle, he initiated physical contact with Bullock, headbutting and pushing her. In response, she pushed him away as he attempted to mount his bike.

“He aimed the gun at me, then put it away. I thought, ‘If you’re going to shoot me, go ahead, you won’t.’ Then he headbutted me with his helmet, and we exchanged pushes after that,” Bullock recounted.

Fortunately, the individuals in Bullock’s car were unharmed during the incident. She mentioned that several people have offered assistance in covering the cost of a new windshield, and a few auto glass replacement companies have volunteered their services.
