Surveillance video showed a man standing outside of a Dollar General store in the 6800 block of Parker Road when a woman started walking towards the entrance before 11:30 a.m. on Aug. 28. According to police, Williams reportedly stole the woman's car keys.
Williams reportedly got into the woman's car in the parking lot but then backed out and walked away.
Moments later, police received a second call advising that Williams was walking on Parker Road near Partridge Run, just one block away. An officer arrived in the area and was driving southbound on Parker approaching Partridge when he was "immediately fired upon" by Williams, the department said.
Police said Williams fired multiple shots that struck the officer's vehicle, breaking the back glass and driver's side window.
The officer, a 32-year-old who has worked in law enforcement for seven years, was not struck.
He then returned fire, striking and injuring Williams.
Williams was taken to the hospital to treat non-life-threatening wounds. Williams' bond was set at $500,000, cash-only.
