It was a night of chaos and terror. Several people, McFarland among them, ran for their lives as shot rang out.
McFarland was shot three times – once in the arm and twice in the leg – and is in good spirits.

Police said the gunman, identified as 50-year-old John Brown, then turned the gun on himself. McFarland said Brown is the father of her two kids.
"I truly believe I was a target of it because I suffered the most hits, but everyone else was just in the way trying to run for their life, too," said McFarland.
She wants to share her story to prevent what happened to her from happening to anyone else: "Don’t look past the red flags. Get out. Get out so you don’t end up in a situation like me."
