It happened near the Hampton Shopping Center lot. 

Save a Lot closed early because of safety concerns. One woman said seeing the crime scene made it hard to feel safe coming to work. She worried she might know one of the victims involved.

"My prayers are with them," said Denisha Tate. "I hope everyone is OK, especially my co-worker’s little brother, and I’m just upset something like this is happening."

FOX6 spoke with a teenager who said the victim was like a brother to her, and he was goofy and generous.

"That’s not fair," said Akira Childress. "That’s not fair. That’s not fair."
