No arrests have been made yet. Police are still investigating and could seek assault charges against the man and the teen, said Katie O'Sullivan, a spokeswoman for the St. Louis Police Department.
The incident began when the 46-year-old man got into an argument with the 18-year-old male. The teen punched the man in the face.

O'Sullivan said the man who fired the shot had a permit to carry a concealed weapon.
