31 year old Justin Richards, 24 year old Jamal Elijio, and 27 year old Marquin Dury were shot last night on Santa Barbara Street. The men were socializing on the side of the road when they became the victims of a drive by shooting by a Kia Rio taxi. When the bullets stopped raining down on them Richards had been shot to the neck, Elijio had been shot to the right shoulder, and Dury received a graze to his right foot near the knee. We visited the scene earlier today and a neighbor told us off camera what she heard in the immediate aftermath of the shooting.
Voice of" neighbor
"I looked through my window about ten minutes after. I saw that a lot of police had come so I called my daughter and I asked her what had happened and she told me: "mom those guys out there just got shot up". I said it's not shots it's dynamite I heard. She said no mom they were shots. They shot them up."
"Only marquin I know and then the next one I hear they call him owl and the other one that's critical in the hospital I hear they call he fufu."
"And that's all after that the police came and I understand one got shot in his neck and he paralyzed."
