An attempted carjacking took an unexpected turn Friday morning when the driver of a car produced a gun instead of handing over the keys.

A man with a gun attempted to steal a vehicle in the parking lot of a party store located on the east side of 7 Mile and Sherwood roads.

When the gunman approached the driver of the vehicle with his gun, the driver also produced a gun and shots were fired.

The driver of the vehicle has a concealed weapons permit. The two fired shots -- one from each gun -- and both men were hit.

The carjacker and his would-be victim are hospitalized.
