"When we arrived here, obviously there was chaos," Police Chief Eric Echevarria told WEEK-TV. "You can imagine when you have six victims and family members, and everybody that comes out from their homes, nobody wants to hear that amount of gunfire in their neighborhood. One round is enough, let alone 29 rounds."
