"There's a homeless encampment there. We don't even bring our children to the park," said one neighbor, a mother, who did not want to share her name or have her face shown on television. She said she was making breakfast for her kids when the shooting happened.

"I knew instantly it wasn't fireworks," she said. "And that was definitely gunshots. Nine-thirty in the morning? That's pretty disturbing."

Another neighbor, who also did not want to share his name or show his face, heard the shooting and came outside only to see one of the victims lying in the street.

"He looked like he'd been there for a minute," the neighbor said. "There's violence everywhere, but something this big? I've never seen it over here."
