Akron police are trying to get to the bottom of what started a shootout at 11 in the morning in a mini-mart parking lot Monday.
19 News tracked down a witness who caught the shooting on camera. He shared that video exclusively with 19 News.
The young Akron man wanted to make sure he stayed anonymous given what happened, but he lives near Bob’s Mini Mart on East Cuyahoga Falls Avenue and saw everything. “My mom didn’t know what to do,” he said. “She was just frozen with fear because the gunman was just looking at her shooting and then looking at her.”
“I’m actually a little bit frustrated you know what I mean because it’s not just the safety of me,” the witness said. “It’s the safety of everybody that lives in that neighborhood.” The man said there was a point where he feared for his life.
