A driver has captured a dashcam video showing a chaotic shootout unfolding in broad daylight in front of a gas station in Jackson, Mississippi.

A startling dashcam video has captured the moment a driver encountered a shootout in broad daylight in Jackson, Mississippi. 

Footage of the incident, which is now being investigated by the Jackson Police Department, begins with a driver making a right turn at an intersection and approaching a gas station. 

Multiple gunshots can then be heard – including automatic fire – as a gray sedan with a shooter hanging out of its rear passenger side window is seen making a U-turn in front of the vehicle. 

"Oh my goodness, a shootout over here!" the driver says as the shooter appears to be pointing their weapon toward the gas station.
