"I'm chilling in the house playing video games talking to friends and all I hear is 'pow pow pow pow pow," said a resident who did not want us to reveal his name.
Police say 31 bullet casings were recovered at the scene.
Witnesses tell police the victims were talking with about 10 men, all of them on ATVs. A police chase then ensued with one of those riders through city streets after shots rang out.
Chopper 6 was in the air as the ATV sped through neighborhoods, dodging cars and police.
