“He observed a young female in a pink hoodie with a white jacket standing on the passenger side of the white vehicle,” the report says. “The female started screaming at the male, so (the witness) went back inside to continue his work.”

The witness said he did not see who fired the shots or where they came from, the report says. He also said he did not see a white SUV but saw a black Chevy Suburban with dark windows parked on Selma Road near Cypress Street just before he heard the shots.
No other witness or suspect information was available.
