Neighbor Don Hubbard said he was awakened by the shots that he thought were fired by New Year's revelers. He went back to sleep, but two hours later got a phone call and heard SWAT teams swarming the area.
Hubbard, a retired Navy commander, said he saw the body of one man in the condo doorway and recognized him as his neighbor
-- a Navy pilot receiving training at Miramar. "I knew these guys were pilots because I was one and we'd talk about airplanes," Hubbard said. "Even now, you say, how could this have happened? What the hell is going on here?" The condo is located a few blocks from the famed Hotel del Coronado and a block from the main street lined with boutiques and restaurants. Coronado is home to Naval Air Station North Island and is a haven for Navy retirees. Homicides are extremely rare in Coronado
-- just one was recorded in 2010.
