Police in Junction City say an argument over loud music turned violent when a gunman opened fire outside an apartment building.

WIBW-TV reports a resident told police he argued Thursday afternoon with a stranger who was sitting in a vehicle in the building’s parking lot with loud music blaring.

The stranger apparently took offense and drove away, but came back a short time later. The resident says he went outside when the music started up again.

Junction City Police Chief Tim Brown says that’s when the suspect fired three shots at the resident, missing him but hitting the building behind him.

Police are investigating the case as an attempted homicide.
