Jasmine Glover hit the floor Tuesday night when the shots rang out near her home on North Hawthorne Street.

The shooting lasted only four or five minutes, but in that time, Glover said, she heard as many as 40 shots. And they were closer than ever before.

“It was like the Fourth of July,” she said, shaking her head.

On Wednesday, she couldn’t take her child to school because the front two tires on her car had been shot out.

The situation “was crazy,” Glover said.
