"He was bleeding bad,” Kolo said. “Blood was gushing out of his eyeball, his nose, mouth, everywhere. He was talking a little. Or trying to. He was alive for good two minutes."
"You could not even see anything on one side of his face. It was gone,” he continued. “Half of his face was gone. Poor bastard. I didn’t even see a shooter. I hope they catch him."

Mafia hit?
They don’t give any details on the victim, but this was clearly a hit.

I’m not sure they caught the killer, but the victim was known to have been a biggie in the drug world, and the cops thought there was a turf war going on.
