Eyewitness describes heartbreaking search for 7-year-old girl pulled from Frisco pond
Witness Doug Boehner said there was an overwhelming response to the heartbreaking search for the 7-year-old girl pulled from a pond behind Uncle Julio's at Stonebriar Center in Frisco Saturday night. Police said just before 9 p.m., they received reports about a 7-year-old missing from the restaurant. Doug Boehner said he was dining there that night. The moment he saw divers, he knew something was wrong. "Immediately, I thought somebody fell into the water. We watched as firefighters started moving through the brush that's in the water," said Boehner. Officers searched the area and found the girl's shoes near the pond. Boehner said there was a massive response. "So many vehicles," said Boehner. "They had ladder trucks, they had drones, they had divers come out." Boehner said he and several other customers helped with the search. "I walked around the edge ... went back close to the highway. Didn't see anything. A few other people jumped down," said Boehner. Police said that after searching for half an hour, they found the girl unresponsive. First responders attempted CPR, but the girl was later pronounced dead at the hospital. Boehner said he's still processing what he witnessed. "I didn't expect to see any of that," Boehner. "It was probably one of the worst things I've ever seen in my life." Uncle Julio shared the following statement with CBS News Texas: "Our family mourns for this family's tragic loss. Our deepest condolences go out to them during this difficult time. We ask the community to keep this family in their hearts."

Man shot in leg at Manhattan pizza place
A man was shot in the leg outside a pizza joint in Manhattan, cops said Sunday night. Police responding to a 911 call about shots fired discovered the 28-year-old man with a bullet wound to his left leg shortly after 4 p.m. near Delancey St. and Clinton St. in the Lower East Side, police said. Medics transported the man to Bellevue Hospital in stable condition. An employee at a nearby business said he heard one shot ring out before seeing about 10 people run east on Delancey St. 'All I heard was just the shot and then people running,' said the worker, who did not want to be identified. Two police officers patrolled each end of the block and a bloodstain could be seen on the sidewalk near the entrance to the pizza parlor, which remained open serving a steady stream of customers Sunday night. So far there have been no arrests. The investigation is ongoing. Anyone with information is asked to call Crime Stoppers at (800) 577-TIPS. All calls will be kept confidential.
