Enji, a neighbor, says she heard the shooting 

"I heard this big boom," she said. 

She says she hasn't experienced anything like this at the complex before. 

"It's definitely scary, and I feel like it could happen anywhere. But I think we need security here for sure," she said. 

The shooting happened around 10:30 p.m. according to HCSO, the day before Mother's Day. 

"It's not like an injury, it's death, and I'm so sorry for that, mom," said Enji. "I pray that God consols them and gives them the peace they need, and we need to take the guns away from those kids."

HCSO has not identified either victim and say this is an ongoing investigation.
