"The scene consists of six spent shell casings," said Chief Inspector Scott Small, "so we know at least six shots were fired from a semi-automatic weapon or weapons. "Also on the scene, close to the spent shell casings, we found a folding knife with a 4-inch blade. So we don't know if that's involved or how it's involved."
