'It was November 2005. We were playing basketball at our local court at the housing estate in Flemington. Most people were out and about. They had broken their Ramadan fast. We were just spending time around the neighbourhood, playing ball. I was with three people, and one of the guys wanted to grab a cigarette. We walked from the housing estates out onto the main street, where the petrol station was. The petrol station was about 100 metres from the local high school. It just happened to be muck-up day.'
