Slater said four victims were taken to Delray Medical Center in Delray Beach, while the fifth victim was taken to Bethesda Hospital East.

"It's very sad, a 6-year-old shot," neighbor Robert Bresett told Local 10 News. "I have two young kids."

Bresett's 11-year-old son, Brady, said he witnessed the end of the shooting.

"I just heard, like, multiple gunshots, like rapid fire," Brady Bresett said.

Brady said he saw a light-colored car stop in the street before it sped off. He said the men inside the car were wearing masks.

"I saw everybody run over, so I went over, and then I saw the guy bleeding," Brady said.

The 6-year-old victim was identified Sunday as Calvin Daniel Jr. The other victims were identified as Joslyn Louis, 26, Kareem Daley, 30, David Daley, 28, and Julian Daley, 33.
