Bar shooting leaves one dead, two injured
CHELSEA, Mass. - Police are looking for a gunman who opened fire in a Chelsea strip club, killing one man and injuring two others.
Police Chief Brian Kyes says the shooting occurred about 12:30 a.m. Thursday after a fight inside the King Arthur's Lounge on Beacham Street.
The Suffolk District Attorney's Office says 28-year-old Jeff Santiago of Everett died after being shot in the torso. Kyes says a 29-year-old Everett man was wounded in the thigh and a 41-year-old Charlestown man was shot in the calf. They were treated and released.
The gunmen fled the scene.
King Arthur's Lounge was the site of a fatal brawl in 1982 that involved several off-duty Everett police officers.
