A 33-year-old man was shot 15 times throughout his body and another man was shot five times throughout the body.Neighbors say the timing and proximity of this shooting is troubling.“It makes you feel uneasy. Like you think that this can’t happen until you walk outside and hear about it and then you see up live and in person and you think, ‘my God, it’s a block from your house. How could this possibly happen?’ But it does,” John Carrozza said.

“I’m thinking maybe it’s time to move out. For something like this to happen in the middle of the afternoon, it’s like — I heard it was a robbery — if that’s the true story or not, I’m not sure but it’s tough to take,” Mary Grace McHale said.Police originally stated the shooter was a woman.CBS3’s Jasmine Payoute contributed to this report.

jpayoute Hopefully people start realizing, you try taking what people work hard for there are going to be Consequences.

jpayoute What’s up with the changing story?

jpayoute Every home should have a firearm and be properly trained in how to use it. Most effective way to bring down crime in the city. We sure as shit know the clowns in charge aren’t gonna do anything about it.

jpayoute They are figuring this out now? 🤔

jpayoute Its sad how our city is falling apart because Larry Krasners soft on crime policies & inability to do his job

jpayoute If the 2 robbers only had rec centers and resources...

jpayoute It's long been true to move out ! The leaders allegedly in charge including the DA must be fired. No one gives a damn any more ! Politics have taken over.

jpayoute Are you going to ask the homeowners why thry shot perps 20 times like you ask law enforcement? Bravo to the homeowners for the ability to defend themselves! How about the perps criminal record? Any pics of the perps. Are they the white supremacists we’ve been told are the threat?

jpayoute Says the likely owner of a Prius with “coexist” and “Feel the Bern” bumper stickers

jpayoute Get out of that crime ridden,lawless city while you can

jpayoute Krasner

jpayoute Sad to say, but we’re way past sugarcoating things. This was a mostly white neighborhood that is now having to deal with the criminal element from other neighborhoods trying to have its way with them. Definitely is time for anyone with money to move out.

jpayoute It’s been time. Thanks Mayor.
