Police said it is an active crime scene, and the investigation is ongoing.

No details were immediately provided about the person in custody or the identities of the victims.

A neighbor heard the gunshots in the normally safe and quiet area.

“Came home from dropping off my kids, and got inside and heard two gunshots,” neighbor Ryan Hedberg said. “There was apparently more, but that’s what we heard when we were sitting inside.”

Another neighbor, who did not want to be identified, said her son was playing video games with the girl who was killed at the time of the shooting.

“My son was playing a game, and then he ran in the room, and was like, ‘Mom, I think something happened’ to his friend. I said, ‘why would you say that?’ He said he was playing the game, and then he heard gunshots go out, and then he didn’t hear his friend anymore,” she said.
