Video shows the tense moments when a SWAT Team calls out to Houston, who was believed to have barricaded himself inside a home after the shooting.

"Christian, we know you’re inside. Come out with your hands up!" police could be heard yelling.

One eyewitness says she tried to help the victim after the shooting. She calls the whole situation "terrifying".

The woman, who did not want her name used in this story, says her husband had been playing soccer with their children earlier in the day. She says there was an argument and loud yelling.

Dobson went to the home to pick up a family member. 

"Someone said, ‘If you’re going to shoot something, shoot something," the woman said.

That’s when shots were fired.

The neighbor, who is a nurse, saw Dobson face down on the sidewalk. She ran to help, performing CPR until the police arrived.

Despite the lifesaving efforts, Dobson died.

Houston is wanted for several counts of murder, aggravated assault, and weapons charges.
