"They continued firing, and we managed to stay within the proximity of the incident as it was unfolding, and the suspects turned up a dead-end alleyway still shooting, and the fire was returned."
Police say three others were arrested while trying to flee the scene.
They say the suspect's vehicle was loaded with stolen goods.
