Officers found multiple witnesses and 35-year-old security guard Jordan Davis with a gunshot wound in the parking lot of Break Room Bar and Grill. Davis was transported to a local hospital in critical condition and later died in the hospital.

Later in the day, a man identified as 34-year-old Daniel Stuart arrived at a hospital with multiple gunshot wounds. He also died of his injuries, police said.

The initial report from investigators is that Davis and Stuart got into a fight after Davis refused to let Stuart inside the bar for some reason.

Another security guard was detained on the scene and is reportedly cooperating with investigators. He was later released.

Detectives are on the scene investigating what led up to the shooting.

Officials said that they expect more information to come as the investigation continues.
