Around 11:30 a.m., police received a call about a machete-wielding man robbing an auto parts store. The man then reportedly walked over to the nearby Chick-fil-A and began threatening customers and carjacked a vehicle in the drive-through. He drove off, crashing into police vehicles, getting out of the vehicle with the machete, and he was shot and killed.
