Landry says she was afraid because she was in an unfamiliar area on a dark road so she started recording with her phone.
"Immediately when he snatched the camera out of my hand, that's when I drove away and he shot at me immediately," said Landry, a 43-year-old mother of three.

It's an action that the Chester County District Attorney's Office says was not justified since Sparano wasn't in immediate danger.
Landry was not hit by the gunfire.
The judge overseeing the case has not set a date for sentencing yet.
