I was friends with both of them its sad.
Megan were you aware that your neighbor who was shot is an active gang member? A 3 time Felon? funny how you feel for him. He should be in jail with the shooter. If he were not living across the street from you you wouldn't have had a shooting on your street. Now go and ask Jesus(your neighbor) that
just look at them...section 8 gang bangers
