1. “[the victim] had given defendant $45.00 for which defendant was going to secure an eight-track tape player and some tape cartridges. Defendant had spent the $45.00 on drugs and had not delivered the tape player. Defendant was told that [the victim] was looking for him and had a pistol. Defendant saw [the victim] parked across the street from defendant's house with a pistol on the seat beside him. Defendant saw [the victim] return to the scene with either a shotgun or rifle. Defendant was afraid of [the victim] and fired a rifle at [the victim's] vehicle to make him leave.”
