According to TMZ, Megan was attempting to get out of the SUV she was in with Tory when he opened fire inside the vehicle.

Footage shows the police ordering Megan and Tory to leave the vehicle and put their hands in the air as her feet leave bloody prints on the sidewalk.
Megan spoke about her injuries last week, when she denied claims she was arrested alongside Tory, who was charged with carrying a concealed weapon.
She wrote on Instagram at the time: ‘The narrative that is being reported about Sunday’s morning events are inaccurate and I’d like to set the record straight. On Sunday morning, I suffered gunshot wounds, as a result of a crime that was committed against me and done with the intention to physically harm me.

Megan added: ‘I was never arrested, the police officers drove me to the hospital where I underwent surgery to remove the bullets.’
She continued: ‘I’m incredibly grateful to be alive and that I’m expected to make a full recovery, but it was important for me to clarify the details about this traumatic night. I’m currently focused on my recovery, so I can return back to my life and back to making music as soon as possible.’
And captioning the post, she added: ‘I was never arrested. This whole experience was an eye opener and a blessing in disguise. I hate that it took this experience for me to learn how to protect my energy.’
