Channel 2′s Veronica Griffin spoke to neighbors who noticed police tape and emergency lights at the Vineyards at Flat Shoals Apartments.
“I was out with my friends, and I just saw it like it was taped out, so I got kind of nervous,” neighbor Analyssa Rivera told Griffin.
Like Rivera, several other neighbors here also said they did not hear any noises in the area at the time.
The motive remains unknown at this time.
