I saw two d**d guys las night.

(This was at 1:44 A.M. yesterday).

Something traumatizing just happened to me.
I heard gunshots in my apartment complex and then a women screaming. Like the dumbass I am, I drove over there to see if I could help even tho I knew I probably couldn’t (didn’t even have any kind of protection, my adrenaline just kicked in).
I saw a white guy slumped over the sidewalk with a gunshot to his head…. Cops got there quick and even stopped me when I was about to pull back in front of my apartment and saw me crying and I said I wasn’t a witness but was just trying to see if I could help but obviously couldn’t.
They asked where they were and I pointed just down there and they zoomed on through.
There are seven cops and an EMS down there now and they put up crime tape and everything…
I cried for thirty minutes and when I told my mom and best friend what I just saw, I cried again.
It’s all fun and games until you see it in person….
I’m gonna have to take a mental health day tomorrow…

UPDATE:
I really really really appreciate all of your kind words. Y’all have truly helped my mental state on such a dark day for me.
My best friend told her work she had a family emergency and I spent most of the day with her and her family. That really helped me, as well.

When I pulled up I thought I saw somebody sitting on the stairs in front of where I saw the guy (the stairs were dark so I didn’t get a good look of him, he was just a silhouette).
After reading the article the police department posted, I now realize that was the guy he shot before taking his own life… the shooter was the ex boyfriend of the woman and shot her new boyfriend… she has three kids… my thoughts are prayers are with them. Please pray for their healing too.
