"It's incomprehensible to think that someone would shoot into a group of people leaving a church in a neighborhood," Linders said. "It just makes absolutely no sense to any of us."
So far there are no arrests and police haven't announced who the victim was.
The victim's father was carrying a gun at the time and returned gunfire at the suspect. Police say the victim's father had a valid permit for the gun and no one else was injured.
