“At first I thought, I didn’t think anything of it. I thought it was like fireworks or part of the party. but then it kind of got serious. It wasn’t a party anymore; I didn’t hear laughing and all that. And so that’s when I looked outside. I saw a bunch of people in front of the house and then that’s when the police came. That’s when I was like oh yeah something happened,” she stated.
