Police say Raven Smith and Lesley Tanner were exiting their vehicle to go into the restaurant when 17-year-old Anthony Hauser, wearing a ski mask and armed with a handgun, confronted Tanner.

Smith — who possesses a concealed weapons permit — drew his own handgun and fired at the suspect multiple times.

Hauser was struck four times and yelled at Smith to stop shooting. He pulled the mask off his face and claimed the gun he was holding was a “fake.” Investigators later learned Hauser’s gun was actually a fully loaded and operational 25 cal. auto.
