The victim, who had already put a tourniquet on one of his legs, was helped by officers until medics from the Seattle Fire Department arrived and took him to Harborview Medical Center.
The man told officers that he had just gotten home with his wife and two children. When he got out of the car to start getting his children out of the back seat, two armed suspects approached the couple and demanded they hand over their belongings.
At that point, the victim pulled out a handgun and exchanged gunfire with the two suspects.
The man told police that as he was shooting, he moved away from his family to try to distance them from the gunfire. His wife and children were not hurt.
