“At around 3:25 p.m. we received a 911 call about shots being fired. The officers were on the scene fairly quickly. They entered the area behind me, where they found three people. I will not disclose the identities of the people, but will only say that they are three adults, two men and a woman.”

“The person responsible for the shooting is among the dead. I will acknowledge that there is also a daycare and a school behind me. As many of you are aware, there was a curfew here for a while. Our emergency responders were on the scene to ensure public safety.”

The shooting may have been the result of a change in the nature of the business being conducted at the site, Bartlett said, without going into detail.
