The officers found a victim nearby who said he'd been a customer at the market and got into a verbal dispute with the clerk over allegations of him stealing candy, the report said.
The customer said the dispute escalated outside the store when the clerk pulled out a black handgun and fired one shot at the customer as the customer drove away, the report said.
The customer wasn't injured.

Investigators spoke with Correa, who told them he never left the store and didn't shoot at the victim.
But surveillance footage from the store captured the entire incident, and showed them exchanging words outside the store and Correa firing at the victim's vehicle as he drove away, the report said.
