The shooting seemingly disrupted the mundane ebb and flow of commerce and conversation at the 7-Eleven, located at 20925 Interstate 35, beside a KFC, as the store became the center of a crime scene investigation, according to KVUE. Police were first to officially respond to, and publicly confirm the incident and, in doing so, requested the public to consciously steer clear of the area to ensure an unobstructed investigation could take place.
