During an argument between Hodges and the truck’s driver, later identified as Keyon Jamel Tate, 39, Hodges walked to the trunk of his vehicle, retrieved a machete and approached the truck’s occupants while waving the weapon, officials said.
Tate then fired multiple shots, striking Hodges, and fled the scene.
Investigators interviewed several witnesses in the area who corroborated the events captured on surveillance video, according to the release.
Witnesses also said that this incident stemmed from an ongoing dispute between Tate and Hodges, including a prior argument roughly two weeks earlier in which Tate was reportedly injured by Hodges with the same machete.
