Some residents we spoke to in the Lawrenceville neighborhood say they are shaken up to hear the news of this deadly shooting.

One man we spoke to says he comes to this gas station and this bakery all the time, and nothing ever happens over here.

“This area here is good! You rarely see wrecks over here. I was on my way to a meeting and saw lots of police cars but didn’t stop," Kenny Thompson said.
