Residents of a Manassas, Virginia, neighborhood are on edge after police say bullets sprayed houses on their block Tuesday night -- one went through a pillow where a man usually lays his head at night.
"I go up to my room and then I see, you know, the debris from the drywall. I'm like, 'what's this?' and I move my pillow and I see a bullet hole and, you know, the bullet right through the pillow." said Christopher Lopez, 21, who lives with his family on Westmoreland Avenue.
Two bullets flew into Lopez's home just before midnight Tuesday. He was out bowling with friends at the time.
"If you'd been asleep, what would have happened?," News4's Julie Carey asked Lopez.
"I don't know. That's literally...the same side I sleep on," Lopez said.
Lopez's sister was home at the time. She said she was downstairs with her baby when she heard the shots.
"I just heard 5, 6 rounds of shots and then I ran upstairs to my mom's room and then everybody heard it," Genesis Lopez said.

Several shell casings were found in the roadway, police said.
Witnesses reported seeing a black sports car vehicle driving by without its headlights on moments before the gunfire, police said.
