Police believe the 21-year-old was in the wrong place at the wrong time, and was hit by a shooter who was targeting someone else.

Safari was shot while with a group of people in several vehicles in the area of 84 Street and McKnight Boulevard N.E., police said, and detectives have identified several witness vehicles and vehicles that passed through the area.

CCTV footage shows a witness vehicle arrive at the scene around the time of the shooting, and pulled up beside two vehicles there and spoke to people involved, one of which was a silver Volkswagen Jetta that was visibly damaged.

Officers said when the vehicles involved left the area, the witness vehicle did a U-turn and followed.
