Hours on April 20th 2022 Emily Clancy was driving home from dinner with friends I stopped right here at this
00:00:27
intersection when something across the street caught her attention I saw a person run up to another person and then
00:00:36
I heard two bangs and that other person collapsed when the light changed Emily sped through the intersection and pulled
00:00:43
up next to the victim I opened the door I said are you okay and she said no I've
00:00:49
been shot the victim was 33-year-old Nicole Nikki lenway a crime scene investigator for the Minneapolis Police
00:00:58
she was on her way to pick up her 5y yold son when she was shot she was in a lot of pain she was having a hard time
00:01:04
breathing where's the victim who's shot Emily did her best to help Nikki until First Responders arrived she was scared
00:01:14
really scared whoever did that know as she was coming to pick up her kid I just looked her in the eyes and I said Nikki
00:01:22
we got this we got this just stay with me okay so we've got EMS coming right now Emily told believes what she thought
00:01:31
had happened it maybe looked like a robbery or something there was so fast could you tell the gender was it male or
00:01:39
female so I thought it was male take it to the hospital Nikki lost Consciousness
00:01:45
but she recovered and gave police this description I was very sure it was a female shooter you do work for the
00:01:53
police department did you think it might have something to do with work you know
00:01:58
I know a lot of people ask me that I knew that this could happen but I didn't want to believe it
00:02:06
would wow Aaron joins us now Aaron W so can I first just can we first talk about
00:02:12
Emily Clancy how many people when you see a shooting drive straight to it to help the person most people would duck
00:02:20
or go the other way so I just have to give a bit of a shout out to Emily Clancy because what an make because of
00:02:28
her Nikki is alive no question so Nikki was on her way to pick up her Sony old son 5-year-old son and we heard someone
00:02:35
there say that whoever did this knew she was going to pick up her son so how quickly did police begin to look at her
00:02:40
ex-boyfriend well realize she was though this forensic scientist so they first had to look at the fact that maybe it
00:02:47
was connected to work with the police department or a robbery gone wrong but it looked very personal the problem was
00:02:54
he was inside the center he had an airtight Alibi when they look at it no they find a very unlikely suspect right
00:03:04
yeah well they were saying it's a female shooter which is a Twist in this case Nikki was sure of that uh Emily thought
00:03:09
it was a guy cuz it's all in black but Nikki's sense was even though you couldn't see hair or anything that it
00:03:15
was a woman w war you know we will be watching absolutely as always thank you thank you very much you can see Erin's
