At least three cars were towed away from the scene. Two cars had shattered windows.

A woman who lives in the area said she is worried about her son with the gun violence in the area.

“I don’t let him come home right now because there’s just been a lot going on, I had to pull him out of school,” she said. "It just got to calm down now around here, there’s just too much going on.”

Police are working to establish a suspect and motive.
