Police say Austin and the victim were seen arguing in a car, and that Austin was observed pulling out a gun and firing multiple shots, striking the victim in the arm.
Police spokesman Anthony Guglielmi (goo-lee-EHL'-mee) has described the shooting as a "domestic-related incident between two individuals that know each other."
