He said he rushed to help victims, grabbing whatever he could use as makeshift tourniquets or to apply pressure to wounds: shoelaces, two T-shirts and a pair of sweatpants. ????? ???????  

“I heard the pops going off, and I’m thinking it's someone's car, like their exhaust backfiring," Heckstall said. "But then once it didn’t stop and then people started running, I was like: That’s not what that’s supposed to be." ????????????  

Shaquane Heckstall, 27, a team captain of an El Paso-based car club, told ABC News that he was at the park for the car show when the shooting broke out. He said his training from his 8-year career as an active duty solider in the Army kicked in when he heard the gunshots. ?????  

Nine men and six women were hit in the crossfire and suffered gunshot wounds, police said. Seven of the victims were taken to hospitals in El Paso, while the remainder were treated at hospitals in Las Cruces, police said. Their names were not being withheld to protect their privacy, according to police. ????? ???????

During a news conference Saturday, Las Cruces officials said an unsanctioned car show was being held at the park before the shooting, and there was an altercation between two groups of people that led to an exchange of gunfire. ????????????
