Husband shoots Seattle driver who hit wife

A man who struck a woman with his car outside a Seattle motorcycle club Wednesday morning was then shot by the woman's husband moments later, Seattle police said.



The incident began as a fight at the Seattle Magic Wheels Motorcycle Club around 5:30 a.m., Seattle police officials said.

The driver was driving away from the club when he hit the shooter's wife, according to police. The gunman then fired on the car, shooting the driver once.



"The husband of one of the victims got involved, he pulled a gun and fired shots," Seattle police spokeswoman Renee Witt said.



"She left the club went outside and she was run over by the guy that was shot," Witt said.



Medics found the wounded driver at a gas station near Corson Avenue South and South Michigan Street, a quarter mile from the motorcycle club. He was rushed to Harborview Medical Center in Seattle for treatment of a gunshot wound to the chest.



The husband drove his wife to Harborview himself and was arrested outside the emergency room. There's no word on the condition of his wife.
