- Shooting
at MB nightclub injures two
Two people were
injured, one of them seriously, when shots were fired at
Club Kryptonite early Sunday morning.
According to
Myrtle Beach police, a bouncer tried to break up a fight in
the club's parking lot around 3:15 a.m. Sunday. Police said
one of the men fighting pulled out a gun and shot the
bouncer in the back.
Yet another
bouncer saw what was happening and ran to subdue the
suspect, and when he did, the gun went off again and grazed
the second bouncer.
There was no
word on the first bouncer's condition Sunday night, but he
was transported to Grand Strand Regional Medical Center.
Police arrested
Michael Jay Lee, 23, of Hope Mills, N.C. and charged him
with assault and battery with intent to kill and also with
possession of a firearm during the commission of a violent
crime.
