Investigators then learned of a single-vehicle crash not far from The Palms Lounge and that the driver had fled that scene. Officials believe the two incidents are related.
A bartender called 911 and said a security guard for the bar had been shot, according to Montgomery County Regional Dispatch records.
The caller didn’t witness the suspect or see the shooter.
“We just started hearing gunshots and people started leaving,” she said.
She said the security guard was breathing, but bleeding a lot.
The sheriff’s office is expected to release more information Tuesday afternoon.
