Steptor, 58, is accused of trying to kill two women when he shot at them in their Hollygrove neighborhood Sunday night. The women, a pregnant 17-year-old and her 22-year-old sister, were both injured in the shooting, but neither suffered gunshot wounds.

Around 8:30 p.m. Sunday, police said the women were sitting on a car outside Steptor's home when a "verbal altercation" occurred. The man then got a gun and chased the women down the street while shooting at them, according to police.

The victim's mother said her daughters had gotten into an argument over a cigarette with Steptor earlier in the evening. After the argument, she said Steptor chased and shot at her, her daughters and the teen's 19-year-old boyfriend
