The body of the deceased victim was seen next to an SUV parked in a driveway. There were several bullet holes in the SUV.

Police say the two victims and the two people they detained may have known each other, but were unsure of their relationship.

The deceased victim was also confirmed to be 33-year-old Micheal Jack Bernard.

One man told NBC6 off camera that his cousin is one of the men who was shot, but he didn't know if his cousin died or was at the hospital. He said his cousin came over to 143rd Street to help a friend fix a car.

This shooting brought several people out of their homes, including one woman who said she's ready to move.

"Our babies are out here every single day and not knowing what could have transpired between this young man doing what he did, it's like why,” she said.

The SUV was just feet away from the front door of a home on NW 143rd Street.

The family, who didn’t want to be identified, was inside at the time. They say they heard gunshots and when they came outside, the SUV slowly rolled into their front yard and they saw someone running away.

"I was just scared cause I didn't know what was going on,” a woman said. “I didn't know if there was more people, if there was going to be more gunshots."

The woman at the home says she called 911. Her husband ran outside with towels.

"The passenger opened the door and I said I'm going to help you,” her husband said. "I was trying to help him, I was trying to save his life."

Others who live in the neighborhood say they saw the same thing.

"We came out and saw a guy running, we don't know him, but the car just kept going to the house and stopped right there,” Jerry Ostos.

The man who lives at the home where the SUV stopped says he believed the driver was dead when he ran over to help. He says the passenger was bleeding from his head but talking.

“I was praying for him in that moment, I was telling him he has a purpose,” he said.

Police said they are not searching for anyone else right now. If you have any information -- call Crime Stoppers.
