Queens Bar Shooting Leaves
1 Dead, 1 Injured
Police are
searching for two men who opened fire inside a Queens bar early
Monday morning, killing a young waitress and injuring another
employee.
The incident happened sometime after 2 a.m. at the Tulcingo Café
on Roosevelt Avenue, located in the Jackson Heights section.
Police say two customers were told by the bouncer they were
getting out of line and had to leave. That's when they
apparently began firing shots, killing the 24-year-old waitress
and striking a man in the arm.
Sources tell CBS 2 the bar may have been a place where
waitresses add to their tips with something called "$2 dances,"
just short of a lap dance. The two customers apparently grew
angry after such a dance and that's when they apparently became
disruptive.
Detectives believe the woman many have been killed as she
stepped back into the bar after talking on a cell phone outside.
They were said to have fled in a dark-colored vehicle.
If you have any information regarding this incident, you are
urged to call police.
