Newly obtained surveillance video from a camera outside the apartment complex also captures a rapid burst of gunfire before residents begin reacting to the violence.
One neighbor called 911, telling dispatchers they were too afraid to leave their home after hearing the shots.
Police said the shooting happened on May 2 at an apartment building near Northwest 17th Avenue and 54th Street.
According to investigators, 31-year-old Antwan Carter had been arguing with his girlfriend during a domestic violence incident when her two brothers, Jahiem and Gianni Pierre, came to the apartment to protect her.

Police said that after a fight turned physical, Carter retrieved a gun from his car, returned to the apartment and opened fire, killing both brothers.
Detectives later arrested Carter after they said he confessed to the double murder.
Carter remains jailed at the Metrowest Detention Center on two counts of first-degree murder. He is being held without bond and is scheduled to return to court in early August.
