A 58-year-old man from San Bernardino County is recovering after being shot by one of four men after an argument about a vehicle escalated, authorities with the San Bernardino County announced Wednesday.
The Oct. 28 violence broke out in the 9200 block of Espada Avenue in Hesperia at around 4 p.m., according to an SBSD news releaese.
Investigators said that four men were involved in an argument in the garage of John Huddleston’s home when a fight occurred, prompting one of the unidentified suspects to pull a gun out and shoot the 58-year-old in the leg.

When responding deputies arrived, they found Huddleston in his front yard suffering from a gunshot wound.
He was flown to a nearby trauma center and later released, investigators said.

It’s unclear what exactly why the men were arguing about the vehicle, nor did authorities say whether the victim knew the four men, who presumably fled before deputies arrived.
