For one local teen who wanted to remain anonymous, it was more than just a shooting near his high school. It happened on the street where he lives.
"I came home running and I was shaking," the teen said. "I have sisters at home, and I came running to check up on them. My mom's at work, so I'm like the only person that only takes care of my sisters."
Eugenia Olivas, who lives nearby, said she didn't hear the gunshots, but she's concerned the shooting happened so close to a school.
"I hear crazy stuff like around here happening," Olivas said. "But like I never seen this much cops around here."
Police say the investigation is ongoing.
