A graphic video circulating on Twitter showed at least two people lying on the sidewalk with injuries moments after the shooting. Witnesses in the area told Fox 10 groups of people started running for cover as soon as the shots rang out.
Carly Bragg, who was downtown celebrating New Year's Eve, told Fox 10 the gunshots were terrifying and "sounded like super-close fireworks."
"The timing of it was wild," Bragg said. "We walked right past the area, and then it happened."
She told the outlet she and her friends hid inside a corridor that was "maybe 15 to 20 feet away from the sound and noticed the window shot out of Urban Emporium when we realized how close we were."
