Miranda Grant said she heard the gunshot and then saw it hit her wall.
“We looked behind and there was powder from the drywall,” Grant said. “It went through the second wall. We honestly thought it was inside the wall but it was on our table.”
She said there were five people and several animals inside her apartment at the time.
