Two men shot dead after fight in sports bar
Two people are dead after reports of an “active shooter” at a Warner Robins sports bar.
The Plantation Mill shopping center is roped off with yellow tape as investigators search for evidence.
Just after 1 a.m., Warner Robins police and Houston County sheriff’s deputies responded to Jus One More at 4993 Russell Parkway, according to a news release.
Two men, ages 24 and 26, suffered fatal gunshot wounds to the chest area.
Warner Robins police spokeswoman Jennifer Parson said one of the victims was transported to the hospital in Peach County where he was pronounced dead.
The other man was dead at the scene, she said.
Investigators believe a fight broke out before the gunfire, but no suspect has been identified.
Patrons and witnesses were detained at the scene during the investigation.
Just after 5 a.m., some of them were allowed to leave.
The identities of the victims have not been released pending notification from their families.
Anyone with information about the case is urged to call Detective Shane Mann at 478-302-5378 or Macon Regional Crimestoppers at 877-68-CRIME.
