In another incident, shortly after midnight on Sunday, three men believed to be Hispanic males were put out of a nightclub located on Woods Rodgers Wharf after creating a disturbance.

Shortly after 3am, one of the men returned to the club armed with a handgun, where he got into an altercation with a man identified as the disc jockey, who attempted to disarm him. This led to the disc jockey, the armed man and a woman at the club being shot.

The armed suspect then fled the scene in a Nissan vehicle. Police later recovered a .40 handgun in the area, believed to be the weapon used in the shooting. The man and woman were taken to hospital, where they are detained in stable condition, police said.
