Police said Myers was waiting for his teenage son to leave jujitsu classes at the martial arts studio next to the sporting goods store when three teenagers walked past his car. According to court documents, he observed one of the teens carrying a gun that appeared to be a Glock pistol. As this occurred, police said Myers believed Rohani was grabbing for a gun located in that teen's waistband. It was at that point that police said Myers fired seven times. After the initial shots, Myers stood over Rohani on the ground and continued to fire, according to court documents.
"The 17-year-olds were trying to tell they were just BB guns, but the confrontation intensified so rapidly that, unfortunately, the gun was fired," said Meeghan Black, Renton police.
