"It's just crazy to think that something like that happened around here," said Thomas Robillard.
"It's hard to think, like it's so close," said Jayden Baez, who works the late shift at a neighboring sneaker store. "Anything can happen, especially at night, especially in this city, like things are getting more wild."
Pictures obtained by WJAR show several police cruisers and an ambulance parked outside the Taco Bell, with yellow police tape roping off an area outside the restaurant. Officers could be seen standing inside the lobby, as well as looking at a white Camry parked in the lot.
