“Colby had his own car there, and the car was parked across the street… And so, Kyle and the boys go in this car, and Colby and I, I’m like I’ll just roll with you. You want to roll with me? So before you know it, we take four steps this way to get into his car that was across his street, and then, all of a sudden out of nowhere, it was just like, like so quick.”
