Another witness recounted the chaos from inside the home:
“We had just arrived, and I was holding my niece when the shots started. At first nobody knew what it was. We thought maybe someone was celebrating too hard. But then the looks on people’s faces… we realized this was something very wrong. Everybody just dropped where they were and tried to get to safety.”
There are also reports that some guests and neighbors assisted the injured before medical responders arrived — applying pressure to wounds, using towels as makeshift bandages, and comforting children.
