It happened in the 7900 block of Yellow Pine Dr. That's where Sheriff Ed Gonzalez says an unidentified Uber Eats driver heard several gunshots in his direction. The driver then "pulled into a yard" trying to hide when more shots were fired at him. 

He called for help after driving a few blocks to the 9800 block of Woodland Oaks. We're told the driver was not seriously injured, but the Sheriff says the suspected shooter, Omar Sanchez, 29, was taken into custody on Aggravated Assault charges.
