The Austin Police Department (APD) has issued a call to the public for assistance in their investigation of the shooting that occurred at Lit Lounge last month, as reported by KXAN. The incident, which took place around 1 a.m. on March 30 at the nightclub located at 215 E. Sixth Street, resulted in four individuals sustaining gunshot wounds; APD officers who arrived at the venue promptly administered first aid to the injured parties.
Investigators are urging anyone in possession of photos or videos from the nightclub on the night of the incident to come forward and submit this evidence, “The first officer on scene applied pressure to the wound, and within a minute, the rescue task force was there to apply a chest seal and then pressure to the entrance wound,” APD said during a media briefing, and continued, “That’s when we got multiple more calls saying that there were more victims inside a club on Sixth Street.”
A reward of up to $1,000 has been offered for information that could lead to an arrest in the case, as detailed in announcements by both KXAN and CBS Austin. Tips can be submitted anonymously through the Capital Area Crime Stoppers Program, either online at austincrimestoppers.org or by phone at 512-472-8477; the APD’s Aggravated Assault Unit can also be directly contacted at 512-974-5245…
