FORT WAYNE, Ind. (AP) - Police in Fort Wayne say a man was killed and two others badly wounded in a shooting in the parking lot of an American Legion post.

The shooting happened about 2 a.m. Sunday outside just east of the city’s downtown, were officers found two men wounded. One of those men died at a hospital, while a third man arrived at a hospital in a private vehicle with gunshot wounds.

Fort Wayne police spokesman Mark Bieker says witnesses told investigators that a fight started inside the American Legion post and continued outside after several people were removed.

A large crowd gathered in the parking lot after the shooting, causing police to call in additional officers to control the scene.

Bieker says investigators didn’t immediately have any suspects.
