so it's really hard to tell but it didn't seem like it was longer than a couple minutes. >> kevin, the rapid fire, how long did it seem to go on and did it seem to just not stop? >> the gunshots went off for about 30 to 45 seconds consecutively, and eventually it stopped. >> brittney, did you at any point look up and know where he was or was it just too foggy to see at this point? >> i only saw him like emerging from the shadows when he first started shooting. after that we were down on the ground and then facing the exit door. i didn't want to look back. >> i'm glad you guys got out saly. thanks for what you did, brittney, to help others there and being able to think on your feet like that. i'm sure that helped a lot. and our thoughts and prayers go out to the community. thank you both for being with us. >> thank you. >> thanks, sean. >> coming up, the state of colorado is all too familiar
