Dawson says her kids are out of state on vacation, and that when they return, she's not quite sure how to share the devastating loss.
"I'm honestly a little scared of even telling them of this news," she said with a sigh.
Newly obtained surveillance video shows a man wearing all black, fleeing from the scene moments after the shooting. Police say they are not yet sure of a motive, while local residents are still shocked.
"It just made me really, like, terrified," said Abdulmalik Bukhar, an eyewitness who saw Green unconscious on the floor from his third-floor window." I couldn't go to sleep early."
