The driver said Jordan suddenly re-emerged, pointed the gun at him and fired shots.

The driver said he pulled out his own gun and began to fire back at Jordan.

The driver said Jordan fired multiple shots at him, but all of them missed.

Jordan fled on foot and got into a white SUV, witnesses said.

Officers found three bullet holes on a car and shell casings at the scene.

Surveillance footage showed the robbery and shooting, officers said.

The police report said a detective recognized Jordan from the surveillance video.

He was arrested on Sunday.

Jordan is facing charges including aggravated battery, armed robbery and fleeing or attempting to elude law enforcement.
