Duluth police investigating bar-related shooting

(Duluth, MN) -- Police in Duluth are investigating a gunfire incident that occurred during a large fight outside of a bar early yesterday.

Investigators say the initial call concerned a man involved in the fight that had a gun sticking out of the waistband of his pants, and before officers arrived at the scene a second call reported that shots were fired. It turns out that the 73-year-old private security guard at Twins Bar spotted a man holding a gun, and when he ordered the suspect to drop it the man pointed it at the guard instead. The guard fired one round and the suspect took off running, but turned and leveled the gun at the guard again and the security employee fired a second shot. The man successfully ran from the scene and police are still looking for him.
