The 45-year-old was wounded in the drive-by shooting. Two women were killed and six people wounded – including Williams.“The evening was going fairly flawlessly, everything was lovely, everyone was in good spirits. Without us even knowing, apparently, there was a bit of a tiff between certain parties. I was walking to one of my friends… It just sounded like firecrackers going off but then when I hit the ground, I knew I had been shot.
A manhunt continues for the suspects. Police are urging anyone with information on both incidents to come forward.“It is reported that a BMW SUV approached and suddenly, multiple shots were allegedly fired from the BMW at patrons who were sitting outside the restaurant. 8 people were shot, 2 of whom were declared dead on the scene.
