Yeah.

Okay, copy. I don't know if you guys want to check the area when you're done there.

I just looked at video footage at the bank.

01:05

It looks like two suspects.

01:07

I'm sure who shot fire shots, but two miles run eastbound on 98th, and then a black like Honda Civic or some other sedan went westbound on 98th.

01:24

Okay, you copy it. It looks like we're getting another caller saying something in that area, Southwest Roxbury, and 8th.

01:31

They were about 98,00-blocking 8th, and they were walking southbound, but I don't know what the time delay is on this.

01:38

And then I'm getting another caller for the other shots heard over at the Boys and Girls Club, but it's two males in their 20s. Possibly of East African descent, appeared to be the ones who shot and both ran towards 8th on foot. So I don't know if these are all associated, and they ran towards a red vehicle.
