After a father and son confronted a male for breaking into their vehicle on a St. Paul street, he started shooting at them, police said.

No one was injured after the suspect shot four times, though bullets hit the vehicle.

Officers responded to the Frogtown area at 12:30 a.m. Friday after a report of shots fired.

A 46-year-old said he came home from the store and interrupted a male who was rummaging through a vehicle parked in front of his residence on Charles Avenue between Grotto and Avon streets, said Sgt. Mike Ernster, a St. Paul police spokesman.

He pulled the would-be thief from the car and they began to fight, Ernster said. His 27-year-old son came out of the home to help and the suspect ran away.
