"We're just blessed that he's alive and hopefully we find who did this," Laura Ferraz said, asking neighbors to share surveillance footage with police.
She said her father was headed to work but had forgotten his lunch and parked to go inside and get it, but after he put his hazard lights on, the bullet fired right by his head.
"He thought he heard a bang and he thought maybe a tire had popped or something," Ferraz said. "Then he realized both of his windows, the passenger and his window, were shot at."
This developing news story will be updated when more information is available.
