I spoke w/a neighbor (didn't want his face shown) told me he woke up to gunshots. One man is dead, and police are still looking for the shooter. Ahead on #sundayam, what piece of evidence is helping police in that search and why this man told me he's not surprised this happened. pic.twitter.com/AIKxTUp7ir
