Police released surveillance video of the suspect pulling open the door to the convenience store and start firing.Police also want to speak to a person of interest in the case who may be the driver of the pickup the suspect left in.All four of the victims were teenaged boys age 14 to 16.“We want to know why. We don’t have an answer to why,” said Chief Bryan, during a Monday afternoon news conference.He said it’s not clear if the people who were shot were specifically targeted.
“When it’s 14 and 16-year-old kids committing acts and victims of acts, it’s even harder for us to comprehend that.” said Chief Bryan. Investigators say a white pickup truck pulled up to the store and a man with a gun stepped out of the passenger side and began firing. After the shooting the gunman and the driver sped away from the scene.
