"You hear gunshots. You don't want to look outside. People, they're crazy, a woman, who lives across the street from ther gas station and declined to give her name, told Fox Houston. They'll run in your apartment to hide or get away or whatever. Or if they see you and you seen something you're not supposed to see, they'll come after you," one woman said.
