"Anytime something happens that close to home, you will be more aware of your surroundings, especially with a young family. So, shutting your garage and see who's following you home, just being very aware of what's going on," said neighbor Chad Smith.



Police said they don't believed the gunman and the victim knew each other.



Detectives are trying to review video that may have been recorded of the incident from a nearby home.
