A Philadelphia man shot and killed a man who was trying to carjack his car outside his home, reportedly.

Licensed gun owner fired at least once early Tuesday, after seeing three men trying to tow his car, possibly just to rip out the catalytic converter, police told the Philadelphia Inquirer.

The trio tried to flee in a gray Honda Accord, but crashed into a school bus.

Two of the thieves fled, but the third was pronounced dead, after being wounded by gunshot wounds and taken to a local hospital, according to the report.

The victim of the shooting was identified as Satario Natividad, from 51 years, by his relatives, who demanded charges against the gunman questioned by homicide detectives.

“I didn’t have to go out and shoot him,” he said One of Natividad’s lifelong friends, Tanya Dunn, told the newspaper.

“It was a car! All he had to do was call the police. You don’t shoot someone in the street over a car.”

Chief Inspector Frank Vanore said the investigation was being led by detectives from homicides, but that it was too early to make a decision on whether the shooting was justified.

The firearm was found in the wrecked car along with with tools and catalytic converters, police said, while investigating an earlier report of a stolen car.

Natividad’s widow, Sherell, asked : “How could this be a carjacking, when no one was inside?”

“They shot him. They killed him,” she told the local newspaper.

The owner of the gun claimed to have run into the thieves trying to steal his black Acura.

The fatal shooting occurred just days after a grandfather of 60 years old allegedly shot a child of 16 who pointed a gun at him and fired several shots during an attempted carjacking in the city. The grandfather, Oliver Neal, had a gun license and was not charged in the shooting last Thursday that left his teenager hospitalized, the Inquirer said.
