Nickelson says when N.L. started driving down the road towards him, she swerved towards him, so he pulled his handgun from his right pocket and fired two rounds into the rear driver's side of her Jeep.

Police say N.L. and three other witnesses told them that Nickelson shot two rounds into N.L.'s Jeep while she was driving away.
