I drove my mom to a hair salon I didn’t park in a parking spot I just stopped in front of the salon. I walked with her inside, then I left and for some reason walked around the parking lot. Then I went back to my car and noticed I got a ticket for about $500. The security guard gave me it. I went to talk with him on the side. I offered that I’ll give him $50 and we can forget about the ticket. He said he gets 33 percent of each ticket so I would have to give him 300 for it to be worth it. I agreed and he accepted. Then I said I recorded the whole conversation and that I will alert others about it unless he removes my ticket, aka tried to blackmail him. He took out a gun and shot me in the chest. Then I started running and when I took a turn around a car. I either took his gun or got a gun out of nowhere and shot him.
