It reportedly happened at Cozumel Cantina on Old National Highway. 11Alive crews went to the scene and saw several evidence markers at the scene. When the chaos unfolded, a woman said she was coming to pick up her sister's car.
“She has bruises on her arms and some on her legs," Kiwii Ashmeade said. "It's from running behind the bar, and other guests running behind the bar as well.”
Police have not released any information about the shooting thus far; according to the medical examiner's office, the victim is Racquel Mahone.
