Clint Rauscher, a Uber driver who was picking someone up nearby, caught the shooting on his dashcam. "I heard some pops in the distance in the front and then I see everyone is running towards me. A couple of young girls dove behind a car and beside a car," Clint Rauscher said. "I wasn’t concerned too much getting shot I was more concerned about the people in front of me that were running away from it that they might get shot."

Police said that the four victims were heading to their vehicles when the perpetrators driving in a Dodge Charger began shooting. Police are investigating for a motive behind the shooting.
