Authorities say Johny Emmanuel Cruz-Rodriguez, 27, was standing near the back of a Dodge Durango with the back hatch open. His two children were inside the car.
That's when police say a suspect got into the car and tried to drive away.
Before the suspect could flee the scene, however, Cruz-Rodriguez reportedly tried to climb into the back of the car.

The suspect then allegedly opened fire on Cruz-Rodriguez.
Authorities say the car crashed into two parked vehicles a short distance away.
The Mercer County Prosecutor said both children were unharmed, but Cruz-Rodriguez was pronounced dead at the scene.
The juvenile suspect has since been charged with murder, carjacking, endangering the welfare of a child, and other related offenses.
Investigators say his name is being withheld due to him being a minor.
