Bilal Ali is the uncle to one victim, he believes his nephew was grabbing something to eat after work when the shooter fired indiscriminately.
"Now, little petty trivial things escalate into a death sentence," Ali said. "He's in Shock Trauma now, he's had one surgery, I think he's scheduled for another."
