When they arrived, investigators said they found an unidentified 17-year-old boy, dead, from several gunshot wounds. Some witnesses outside told officers they heard the shots being fired but weren’t around to see what happened.

They did, however, see a car fleeing from the scene and later reported finding the teenager before calling 911.
