When the citizens continued moving towards them instead of backing down, the suspects allegedly opened direct fire. The gunshots can be heard in footage of the incident, while the confrontation is visible on the bridge.

The sound of gunfire forced the citizens to temporarily retreat, giving the suspects an opportunity to return to their motorcycle. After several attempts, the motorcycle finally started, allowing both suspects to flee the scene.
