Note 1: Wasn't there are a male store clerk, standing with his boss outside of the store and was shot in front of his store at closing time in September? I believe he was of Indian descent. I can't remember at this time what day he was shot. Note 2: Obvious factual observations: No shootings on Sundays and no shootings between 9:16 pm and 5:59 am each day of the week.
