A witness thanked God he wasn't injured by a suspected drive-by shooter​

A concealed carry holder in Chicago turned the tables on a suspected drive-by shooter who opened fire on a group of people after a car crash, according to a report.

"The shooting happened so quickly, I didn't have time to react," witness Lorenzo Hernandez told ABC 7 via a Spanish translator. "In Chicago, you go to work not knowing if you will come back home. This happens everywhere. I thank God that I didn't get hit."

Police said they responded to a drive-by shooting at about 2 p.m. on the Southwest Side, the outlet reported, and squad cards surrounded a Chicago Transit Authority (CTA) bus.

The tow truck driver, who did not provide his name to local media, however, reemerged during the shooting and fired off two shots at the suspect, ABC 7 reported.

The suspect has not been identified and fled the scene before police were able to make any arrests. The police department confirmed that a witness with a concealed carry permit returned fire on the suspect, according to ABC 7.

Too bad he missed.
