The couple attempted to run away. The shooter got into his vehicle and caught up with the couple. The vehicle owner then got into a fight with the male as he tried to hold the couple for police, said Sgt. Clarence West of Dayton Police.
The female was taken to Miami Valley Hospital with minor injuries, mostly bruising from the rubber bullets, said police.
The couple is being charged with theft from a motor vehicle. The owner of the vehicle is being booked into the Montgomery County Jail on felonious assault pending review of detectives and prosecutors, said West.
Thursday’s shooting occurred in the 400 block of Xenia Avenue less than 32 hours after a shooting in the 1500 block of Xenia that injured two people on Wednesday.
