"When I got off (work) I just saw a lot of police and I was like 'Wow, what happened?,'" said nearby resident Marquel Kinder. "I just saw people crying in the middle of the street, like they was hugging each other walking down the street."

Kinder was greeted at home by police, a sight of sadness that told him: "I know, it was like a death."
