A road-rage incident turned into a shootout Sunday afternoon in North Philadelphia when a private security guard and another man traded fire at 13th and Wallace Streets around 2:15 p.m., police said.

It was not immediately clear who fired first, or how many shots were fired.

The security guard pursued the man, who was in a car with several others, police said, to the 800 block of Reno Street. The man then jumped out of the car, the security guard reported, and barricaded himself in an apartment building.

Police searched for the man but could not find him. The car he got out of, a silver Buick Century with Delaware tags, drove off, police said.
