Police are still seeking the person who opened fire at a rap concert in downtown Eugene Friday night.
Six people were transported from the WOW Hall to the hospital with gunshot wounds, one in critical condition.
In a KLCC exclusive, one of the victim鈥檚 parents talked about finding out about the incident.
Stephanie Webster of Springfield took a call from her daughter鈥檚 boyfriend minutes after shots were heard behind the WOW Hall. The scene was pure pandemonium.
鈥淚 was a bit beyond myself, it seemed quite surreal,鈥� Webster told KLCC. 鈥淚 was just asking to speak to my daughter. I could hear a lot of screaming in the background, officers, sirens, just a lot of chaos.鈥�
An officer got on the phone and assured Webster her daughter鈥檚 wound didn鈥檛 appear life-threatening, and they were preparing to take her to the hospital. A tourniquet was applied to the woman鈥檚 thigh; the bullet went completely through.
The wound required stitches, and Webster鈥檚 daughter is already home, just in shock and pain. She has antibiotics and medication to help with the recovery.
鈥淪o thankful for everyone鈥檚 prayers and thank God that my daughter鈥t could鈥檝e been a lot worse,鈥� said Webster. 鈥淵鈥檏now what I mean? She鈥檚 alive and she鈥檚 going to recover, and we鈥檙e very thankful for that. And our prayers go out to all the other victims and families as well, because it was an extreme nightmare.鈥� 鈥�
