A male suspect was waiting under a tree when the trio's vehicle pulled into the parking lot. He then proceeded to rush over to the vehicle and began opening fire.
McManus said that the man and the boy were shot in the crossfire. The man is in critical condition while the young boy sustained a gunshot wound in the shoulder and is expected to survive. The girlfriend was not hit in the gunfire.
Witnesses saw the shooter running through the neighborhood with no shoes on following the attack.

McManus said that the incident was not a random shooting, noting that target of the attack was the 24/25-year old man.
"All of the violence in throughtout the city is stepping over the line, but when you do it at a church event, that's pretty much unheard of and we are going to stop at nothing to capture this individual," McManus added. "This is uncalled for insanity that someone would be brazen enough to do this, on a Sunday afternoon, at a church event."
The department is currently following leads which McManus said will hopefully allow police to close the case sooner rather than later.
