"My son was getting a haircut when the shots went off. It was so loud. It happened near the trampoline and pacsun. There were shell casings on the floor there. My husband and a few other men went to check to see if anyone was injured. All I could think of was getting our kids outside. Terrifying"

Another eyewitness said. "We were walking out of pacsun and all of a sudden heard 6-8 rounds go off. Felt like it was right in front of us. Extremely loud"
