Milwaukee police are still looking for whoever fired into a crowd of people early Friday, killing four.

Police spokeswoman Anne E. Schwartz says two women, ages 23 and 27, and two men, ages 24 and 28, were killed at about 2:30 a.m. on the north side.

Two people were injured, including Sylvia Ware, who was returning home from celebrating her 35th birthday at a nightclub.

She says pulled up in front of her house and saw 10 to 20 people outside. She heard gunshots and ducked in her car. The window shattered and she felt something hit her upper back. She says it burned and she crawled out of the car and saw two friends lifeless in the street. She says she then fainted and woke up in the ambulance.

She says she considers herself lucky, but her heard goes out to the other families.
