Carjack Victim Turns Tables On Attackers

Bullets fly on the streets of Miramar early Thursday morning as an attempted carjacking turned into a shoot out.

Miramar police say it happened just around 5:30 a.m. in front of the Wachovia bank branch on Miramar Parkway and 68th Avenue. 57-year old Bruce Allen Williams had just pulled his truck up to an ATM at the bank when two men got out of a small brown car and demanded the keys to William's truck.

As Williams got out of the truck and handed the would-be carjackers his keys, one of the robbery suspects fired on him. Williams, who has concealed weapons permit, drew his own gun and fired back, hitting at least one of the men. Williams was not hurt. Both of the robbery suspects then took off on foot as the driver of the small brown car fled the parking lot.

Police established a perimeter in the area in an effort to capture the 3 suspects, one of which is suffering from a gunshot wound.
