Area resident James Kohut was out walking his dog when he says he heard what sounded like five gunshots.

"Followed by what sounded like a machine gun," he said. "Numerous shots going off in super rapid fire."

"There's no way any semi-automatic could shoot rounds off that fast."

"I was absolutely stunned by what I was hearing," Kohut added. "This is very unusual."
