Brandon Jackson says he watched from the woods Wednesday night as a black Hyundai crept down Kellys Ferry Place. The car still rolling, a man hopped out of the back seat with a shotgun.

Seconds later, Jackson says, the vehicle halted and two more men emerged with guns.

The trio walked toward Lot No. 300, toward three men and a teenage boy sitting outside a motor home, a group that included Jackson’s brother-in-law, 24-year-old Jon Morris.

Jackson bolted through the woods and up the street, to his Lookout Valley home.

He told his father-in-law, Everett Morris, that men were next door with weapons. In one of the bedrooms, meanwhile, Jackson’s wife, Molly, was listening to country music and putting her 3-year-old son to bed when she heard “POP! POP! POP!”
