"It’s shocking. You think you’re safe in your own home and you think you got a good neighborhood that you live in, and not always the case," Murphy said. "I found bullet holes in my house. I got a couple of bullets in my house, going into my garage."
Murphy said he's grateful it wasn't worse for them.
"I’m thankful we’re safe, thankful we didn’t get hurt. Obviously, the house can be repaired but if you get shot, that’s a bad deal right there," he said.
Police said the motive for the shooting is unknown, but suspected it may be gang-related.
Police have not taken anyone into custody in the shooting.
