Another person, a 28-year-old woman, was also shot but released from hospital.

The incident happened around 12:30 a.m. Tuesday morning when shots were fired outside the busy local bar.

Cockburn Street was taped off between Corydon Avenue and McMillan Avenue and remained closed until late into the day.

Forensics investigators spent hours placing evidence markers on the street next to the popular patio. Markers could also be seen further away from the bar next to Benson Park.
