2 AMer @ Bugsy's Speakeasy, Elyria, Oh

I've often mentioned the dregs and drug dealers that hover around the entrance and populate the streets here in my reviews.
It appears that this young man may have personally met one of them.

ELYRIA — An Elyria man died after an early-morning shooting Friday on Broad Street downtown.

First responders were called to the area in front of the Boost Mobile store at 356 Broad St. about 2:20 a.m. for reports of a shooting.

They found 20-year-old Yadiel Torres lying on the sidewalk with a gunshot wound to the head. He was pronounced dead at the scene.

Torres walked out of Bugsy's Speakeasy at 348 Broad St. after it closed early Friday morning, and was out on the sidewalk when he was shot, Elyria police spokesman Capt. Bill Pelko said.

Pelko said detectives were interviewing people about the shooting, and no suspects were in custody as of 4 p.m. Friday.

"We're still working on it, trying to track down some witnesses," he said.

Anyone with information is asked to call Elyria police at (440) 323-3302.
