At the time of the shooting, cbsnews reported there being to be five to six African-American males in the suspected vehicle. It was later disclosed that up two individuals in the black SUV had been at the same party that the victim had been at earlier that evening.

Responding police found the TV and film studies major lying on the ground. 

In an interview with Fox 4, the parents of Mutschlechner said their daughter had dreamed of being a film director or producer.

The girl’s father, Clay called the killing ‘senseless and tragic‘, adding: ‘We’re all going to miss her. Some people don’t get to have their kids 20 years. We have to be blessed with what we’ve had with our time spent.’

Added the girl’s mother Gloria: ‘All I could think about was her and this horrible thing that happened to her. She did not deserve this.’
