Police said they believe a fight started inside the apartment at 1832 Spring Drive, which was rented by the female victim.

The fight then moved outside and into the apartment complex parking lot.

“A nearby resident …. heard the screaming and yelling from the assault and came outside his apartment to investigate,” police said.

“Upon observing Davidson assaulting (the woman), he fired several rounds from his personal handgun, striking Davidson several times. Davidson then ran back into the apartment where police later found him.”

The female victim was outside when officers arrived.

At this time, no charges have been filed against the man who fired the gunshots and he is not in custody, police said.
