The shooter’s motive is not known and his identity has not been confirmed. Two people were hospitalized. They are expected to survive.
Police detained “a large number of witnesses” and said “there is no indication of terrorism at this point.”
Louie’s Grill & Bar is in the northwestern part of the city.
People are being urged to avoid the area and roads have been shut down.
