A witness told NBC10 he saw a group of young people gathered in the area before hearing the gunshot.<\/p>\n

“Me and this other guy were unloading this forklift here and I hear one real loud shot and we\u2019re like, ‘What is that?’ and then we look around and we saw a kid running the other way over here. We kept working, but we kept looking around,” Andrew said.<\/p>\n

No arrests have been made, and the motive remains unknown.<\/p>\n
