A local businessman told Channel 2 Action News that police obtained surveillance video from the Shell Gas at 14th and Spring Street.

The gas station’s camera captured a running figure crossing the intersection and then running along 14th Street. Then, a third camera caught the man approaching a vehicle on 14th near an interstate overpass.

He then runs up Williams Street near the stolen truck belonging to a maintenance man who had gotten out to pick up trash in a parking lot.

“I walked into the lobby, and there was building security available. I reached out to them and asked them what happened, and they told me they heard gunshots coming from the 11th floor,” said Dr. Ali. “And they said there was a pool of blood that they noticed when that elevator in one of the three shafts came down when the doors opened, and so that’s what alarmed them to call an emergency and get the police out here.”
