NEWSWATCH SEVEN AT TEN. NEBRASKA STATE PATROL SAYS A MAN SHOT SEVEN OF HIS NEIGHBORS, THEN TURNED THE GUN ON HIMSELF. THANKS FOR JOINING US. I'M MADDIE AUGUSTINE. IT HAPPENED IN THE TOWN OF CRETE, A HALF HOUR OUTSIDE LINCOLN. KETV NEWSWATCH SEVEN SEAN MCKINNON JOINS US LIVE FROM CHILDREN'S NEBRASKA, WHERE TWO SHOOTING VICTIMS ARE BEING TREATED. NATI, LIKE YOU SAID, FOUR KIDS WERE SHOT. THE YOUNGEST ONLY THREE YEARS OLD. NOW ALL SEVEN VICTIMS ARE EXPECTED TO SURVIVE, BUT TWO OF THE KIDS ARE STILL HERE AT CHILDREN'S HOSPITAL. AN ADULT ALSO IS AT THE HOSPITAL. CRETE POLICE SAY THEY'VE B BEEN CALLED TO THAT NEIGHBORHOOD BEFORE AND THAT THE VICTIMS KNEW THE SHOOTER. FRIDAY, 4:30 P.M. CRETE POLICE RESPOND TO SHOTS FIRED IN A NEIGHBORHOOD. THERE WERE MULTIPLE ROUNDS FIRED. WE DON'T KNOW EXACTLY HOW MANY. SEVEN PEOPLE, FOUR CHILDREN, THREE ADULTS ARE SHOT. MOST OF THEM WERE OUTSIDE WHEN THEY WERE HIT. AS FIRST RESPONDERS ARE RESCUING THEM, A SINGLE GUNSHOT IS HEARD FROM A HOME ACROSS THE STREET. THE SWAT TEAM BREACHES THE HOME, FINDING THE SHOOTER, 74 YEAR OLD BILLY BOOTH, DEAD, KILLING HIMSELF WITH THE SHOTGUN. HE JUST USED ON THE VICTIMS. CRETE. POLICE SAY THE VICTIMS CALLED THEM ABOUT BOOTH BEFORE THEY SAY HE FLIPPED THEM OFF, TOLD THEM TO GO HOME OR BACK TO WHERE THEY CAME FROM. UH, TO SPEAK ENGLISH. JOSHUA MORALES IS FRIENDS WITH THE VICTIMS AND BELIEVES THIS SHOOTING WAS RACIALLY MOTIVATED. I GUESS THE DUDE THAT SHOT THEM WAS JUST RACIST, SHOT LIKE A HISPANIC FAMILY BECAUSE HE TOLD A HISPANIC FAMILY TO GO BACK TO THEIR COUNTRY. SATURDAY WE TALKED WITH MARK MARTINEZ. HE'S A RETIRED U.S. MARSHAL, OMAHA POLICE DEPUTY CHIEF, AND A MEMBER OF THE LEAGUE OF UNITED LATIN AMAMERICAN CITIZENS. WE TALKED ABOUT THE POLITICAL RHETORIC SURROUNDING THE SOUTHERN BORDER AND IMMIGRANTS. IT ADDS FUEL TO THE FIRE, THE INDIVIDUALS WITH WITH THAT SORT OF HATRED INSIDE OF THEM. HEARING THAT KIND OF RHETORIC, UH, YEAH. IT DOESN'T DO ANYBODY ANY GOOD, RIGHT? HE ALSO WANTS NEBRASKA LAW ENFORCEMENT TO BUILD TRUST WITH MINORITY COMMUNITIES YEAR ROUND, NOT JUST WHEN SOMETHING BAD HAPPENS. TRUST US TO A CERTAIN LEVEL. TRUST US TO COME AND SEEK OUT HELP. TRUST US TO BE A WITNESS TO A CRIME. UH, EVERYBODY WINS. POLICE SAY BOOTH SHOT THE VICTIMS FROM A 50 FOOT DISTANCE WHILE STANDING INSIDE HIS OWN HOME ACROSS THE STREET. THEY ALSO BELIEVE BOOTH DIDN'T SAY ANYTHING TO THE VICTIMS BEFORE SHOOTING THEM. ALL SEVEN ARE EXPECTED TO
