Hours later Bein-Aime returned to the scene of the crime where the doors and windows of the lobby where shattered and investigators still gathered evidence.
Two other vehicles were also shot up in the parking lot and another a few blocks away.
Police believe there were multiple shooters involved who arrived at the apartment in a silver, older-model Nissan Altima, and a black Pontiac Grand Prix.
