“About three or four shots,” said George Saldias, who works at the Boost Mobile across the street from the shooting.
Saldias said things were not so bad.
“But it’s getting bad lately,” he told Channel 9′s Jonathan Lowe. “In a week, two shootings right in the same spot.”
MEDIC took one person to the hospital with life-threatening injuries.
“At the end of the day, we are fathers,” Saldias said. “We are mothers. We have family at home. We just want to go home.”
On Feb. 8, there was an officer-involved shooting at the Fast Mart #5.
