The male suspect claimed the woman had refused to leave the area, leading to an argument. He further alleged the situation escalated after the woman drove over his foot, prompting him to fire shots at her vehicle, TMZ reports.<\/p>\n<p class=\"paragraph larva \/\/ lrv-u-margin-lr-auto  lrv-a-font-body-m   \">\n\tNo injuries were reported, and the woman was not transported to a hospital.<\/p>\n<p class=\"paragraph larva \/\/ lrv-u-margin-lr-auto  lrv-a-font-body-m   \">\n\tThe suspect, identified as 35-year-old Markeith Cungious, was arrested at the scene, according to <a href=\"https:\/\/ktla.com\/news\/local-news\/shots-fired-outside-chris-browns-tarzana-home-suspect-arrested\/\" rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\">KTLA<\/a>. He was booked on suspicion of discharging a weapon and possession of a weapon in connection with an assault with a deadly weapon case.<\/p>\n<p class=\"paragraph larva \/\/ lrv-u-margin-lr-auto  lrv-a-font-body-m   \">\n\tLaw enforcement reportedly clarified that the weapon involved was not a traditional firearm.
