ATLANTA — A woman says a night of skating ended with her getting caught in the middle of gunfire.
Channel 2's Tom Jones spoke with the woman who said she could have been killed.
"Had I been five minutes earlier, had I been sitting in my car, I would have gotten killed," Shenika Brown said.
A hail of bullets had Brown and her friends running for their lives as they left the Cascade Family Skating Rink on Sunday night. She said a group of men were firing shots at each other. Brown and her friend ran but didn't know if they were running in the right direction.
"We were running. Ain't no telling where the bullets came from. Or where they were going," she said.

When she got to her car, she noticed her window had been shot out and she saw a huge bullet hole in her passenger door.
Jones counted nine shell casings just in the area of the skating rink parking lot alone.
Atlanta police are investigating the shooting.
Brown blames the skating rink for not providing adequate security. She says she reached out to them.
"(They say) they have nothing to do with it. This isn't our case. And it happened across the street," she said.
Jones went by the skating rink and called to get its side of the story but got no answer.
Brown wants answers.
Police initially detained several men suspected in the shooting but they had no weapons and were released.
Officers believe a nearby Texaco's surveillance camera may have captured the gun battle.
