Police found the victim, who was not identified, suffering from a gunshot wound. He was pronounced dead at the scene. Neighbors said the victim's young child was home at the time of the shooting.
"I have kids, imagine how that boy feels now," said a neighbor named Damiam, who lives in the area. "The boy kept yelling 'Dad, Dad, Dad.' And then if you see in the hallway there’s a puddle of blood."
