Chattanooga police say two women tried to carjack a man they met at McDonald’s.

Richard Ogden, 22, told police he met the women at the restaurant on Rossville Blvd. around 1 a.m. to buy drugs, according to a news release from the police department.

Ogden said he agreed to give the women a ride and as he was driving one of them pulled out a gun, struck him in the head, and demanded the vehicle, police said. Ogden then said he was shot in the leg, which caused him to wreck.

He was taken to a hospital for a non-life threatening gunshot wound and then arrested on outstanding warrants.
