This is where details become critically important. Bullet fragments and spent cases may mean a gun was fired in the vehicle at some point. However if the gun was loaded with seven rounds when it was recovered then it was not fired during the encounter. Its maximum capacity is seven rounds so if fired should have had no more than six rounds loaded.
