When Norwood News visited the location on Monday morning, three different sets of neighbors said they heard no shots, no arguments, and no disturbance of any kind, including one resident on the same floor as where the shooting occurred.

 

One elderly female resident said she heard a lot of commotion later which she believes was the police arriving but nothing before that.
