Subjects returned to the scene, attempting to retrieve items discarded the previous day in relation to the shooting incident. As deputies arrive on scene, they witness one of the men walk within close proximity to the patrol car and discard a black object. Deputies try to make contact with the male subject. After repeatedly warning the subject to stop and a short foot chase the male complied. Both subjects were detained for questioning without further incident.
