"I saw a cop run into the bar and return fire. And shortly after it was surrounded, but the gunfire still continued," Day said.
He said he and his roommates watched out the window as the ordeal unfolded, as they saw people run in all directions from the club.
"It was surreal. I didn't know what was going on. But it has sunk in now," Day said.
