Dispute At Flushing Strip Club Leads To Fatal Shooting: NYPD

FLUSHING, NY — An argument at a Flushing strip club led to a nearby shooting early Saturday morning that killed one man and wounded another, according to police. A shooter fired several rounds into a Hyundai Sonata in which Twayne Summers of Bed-Stuy and two other men were sitting near the intersection of Ulmer Street and the Whitestone Expressway, the NYPD said.

Cops responded to a 911 call just after 4 a.m. and found Summers, 28, who was in the driver's seat, a gunshot wound to his head, police said. Another 37-year-old man in the front passenger seat was shot in the back, the NYPD said.

Both men were taken to NewYork-Presbyterian Hospital Queens, where Summers succumbed to his injuires on Sunday, according to police. Another man, 36, was in the back seat of the car but was not hurt, the NYPD said.

Police believe the shooting stemmed from a dispute that started at the Angels nightclub on College Point Boulevard, according to an NYPD spokesman. The shooting is still under investigation and no one has been arrested, police said.

The strip club is the same one where police accused the Bronx-born rapper Cardi B of causing a scene last August.
