Neighbors said they heard the shots and called 911.

"I was sleeping we heard one gunshot.  I woke up out my sleep, I looked over and I heard two more gunshots and thought, 'I hope it's not my car,'" the unidentified neighbor said.  "We waited to make sure no one else was out there -- looked out the window and there was a guy just laying there.”

Police haven't made any arrests.
