Friend describes moments after shooting
Cutts' best friend held him in his arms while they waited for an ambulance.
Cutts was a senior at Roseville High School and a star football player.
Cutts’ friend, Cedric-Smith Cole, was involved in a fight after a basketball game on Sunday. Cutts went to meet Cole on Monday when the same men from the fight rolled up and started shooting, police said.
"I pulled him in the house and grabbed the towels, but there was too much blood," Cole said. "I was holding his hand. I told him, 'If you die, bro, I love you.' Then I squeezed his hand, and then he died."
