Investigators examine a truck at the homicide scene.

The incessant ringing of the doorbell woke Matt Mcallister just before 4 a.m. Friday.

A neighbor pounded on the door. Call 911, she pleaded. Someone’s been shot.

And then she ran away.

Mcallister, a former firefighter, followed her up the street to a white house at 412 Frazier Drive where he found 21-year-old Peyton Hogan flat on his back, pressed close against the back tire of a pickup truck, feet pointed toward the driver’s side door, shot in the chest.
