"There were a lot of people in the area for Little League games when the shooting happened," McGowan said. "We are still asking the public to help us identify the victim, who was found with no identification."
The victim died a short time after the shooting at a nearby hospital.

McGowan said there were so many witnesses that several dozen of them were taken by bus to the police station for interviews.
