It’s alleged Davis fled the crash scene on foot and remains outstanding.
The other party, seen on CCTV firing at the Nissan in an alleyway, then firing more shots on Cannon Street, has been identified allegedly as La.
He faces six firearms charges and two counts of failing to comply with a probation order.
La, who is also wanted for an incident on May 30, and Davis should be considered armed and dangerous.
