ONE SHOT – ONE STABBED DOWNTOWN

LARGE FIGHT BREAKS OUT ON BROAD ST
DEVELOPING STORY
Elyria – A fight that broke out on Broad Street in downtown Elyria ended up with one man being shot and another stabbed.

Witnesses say that the fight broke out in the middle of Broad Street in front of the First Merit Bank’s drive-thru. Multiple gunshots rang out as Police Officers arrived to break up the fight. We’re told by witnesses that the man who was shot stumbled over to the Toy Box Night Club for help – a bystander, who happened to be a nurse, assisted the man until LifeCare Paramedics arrived and began treating the man.

The gunshot victim was transported to Elyria Memorial where another man showed up moments later with stab wounds from the same fight.

Police searched the area and found several spent and unspent shell casings along Broad Street. Police also followed the trail of blood and found two small knives.

At least one of the victims were transported by helicopter to MetroHealth Medical Center in Cleveland – condition on both men are not known at this time.

TMCnews you always seem to amaze me on how you’re always in the action as it happens to bring us those great pictures. Not to change the subject, but look at the front of the building the bar is in. Home owners were sent letters from the City to paint and fix their houses when Grace just the owner of the building get away from painting it.
