Supects Sought in Gwinett Bar Shooting
(WSB Radio) -- Armed robbers, accused of shooting a Lilburn bar patron, may have made it easy for police.
WSB's Richard Sangster reports at least three men, and perhaps a woman, are being sought for the shooting at the Happy Hours Restaurant and Bar on Pleasant Hill Road.
Investigators say the victims had been displayed a large amount of money and that may be why he was targeted.
The victim was shot in the back in the parking lot, but it apparently was not a clean getaway.
Gwinnett police say a witness has provided investigators with a name of the shooter and the suspect also left behind key evidence that may help in the investigation.
The victim is hospitalized in serious condition.
The shooting happened around 12:30 a.m. Monday.
What others are saying
- Victim With $$$People who hear about crime often blame the victim as a way of making themselves feel safer.
- Bar ShootingTo Michael, You are the one who is "STUPID". I wouldn't suggest to anyone with a large amount of money in their pockets to be waving it around and showing anyone who wants to look how much money you have but, that does not justify the person being shot and robbed of thier belongings. You are right, no one has to be bright to be a theif and by reading your message I bet you are a very successful at your profession !!!

- Gwinenett Bar ShootingNo one DESERVES having their own money taken from them. Thats a thought from another thug.We live in a violent society with many very just down right mean no good people.They don't care about you or me.You flash 40 bucks you'r dead.
- Supects Sought in Gwinett Bar ShootingNo one said you had to be bright to be a thief. As far as the victim any idiot that has a large sum of money on his person & just whips it out while paying for things deserves to have it taken from him. Sounds like the victim was drunk & not thinking or just being stupid & trying to impress people by carring a large amount of cash.
