in the downtown area. Montgomery police say the shooting took place in the 100 block of Madison Avenue, but multiple witnesses told WSFA 12 News it happened at the DoubleTree hotel.
“All we heard was just a loud volley of gunfire. And there were two volleys of gunfire. It didn’t really sound like it was automatic, but it sounded like somebody was really pulling the trigger awful fast,” said the witness. “As soon as we heard gunfire, I woke up and I started rolling over towards the floor, and I grabbed my wife and I pulled her down with me on the floor. It sounds like we may have handled that very well, but we’re nervous wrecks right now.
“We feel like we were definitely in God’s hands in a very close call. We’re praying for all those people that were there. We’re concerned about everybody that was affected by this,” said the witness
