TESTING: His ‘heart hurt’: Springfield businessman reflects on Sat. shooting
Calvin Pitts couldn’t get into his business, Southtown Construction and B.O.N.E. LLC, in the 1100 block of South Grand Avenue East Saturday morning.
Later, when Pitts found out one person had been killed and four others wounded at an early morning gathering at a former beauty supply store just a few doors down, he said his “heart hurt.”
“My mind wasn’t on the money I lost,” said Pitts, reached Sunday morning. “My mind was on the life that was lost.”
