2 separate shootings at Mayfair bar

MAYFAIR (WPVI) -- Philadelphia police are investigating two separate shootings at the same Mayfair bar.

At approximately 12:03 a.m. Sunday, police responded to the 4400 block of Cottman Avenue for a report of gunshots at McGeehan's Bar.

Police say a 21-year-old man came into the bar to get his 27-year-old girlfriend. When she refused to leave, police say he became angry and started yelling inside of the bar.

The bar's staff asked the male to leave and closed the door behind him.

Several minutes later, bar patrons heard approximately two to three gunshots coming from outside.

Police say the man fired at the glass door, striking a 23-year-old man who sitting at the bar.

One of the other rounds fired stuck the mirror in close proximity to where the bartender was standing.

The gunman fled the scene.

However, police say he has turned himself in to authorities around 11:00 a.m.

While police were on location gathering information about the shooting, a 55-year-old man arrived at the bar.

Police tell Action News he was upset that his daughter was inside.

When the man exited his vehicle, police say he had a loaded .380 Sig Sauer P226 handgun in his hand.

The firearm discharged once in the area where police and witnesses were standing.

As officers approached the man, he pointed the firearm in their direction.

According to police, officers ordered the man to drop the firearm and he refused.

A struggle ensued between arresting officers and the man.

Police say the 55-year-old kept his finger inside the trigger guard as officers tried to physically disarm him.

The weapon was recovered from the man and he was taken into custody without incident.

Officers also recovered a .45 Kimber firearm loaded with 9 rounds from his waistband.

Police say the man has an expired permit to carry.

"I think the male was intoxicated. You've got a guy coming here with police lights on and a lot of police cars at this location. The male comes in with two guns, one in his hand, fires a shot. He could have, obviously, hit one of us or one of the witnesses to the previous shooting," Philadelphia Police Captain John McCloskey said.

The identities of the two suspects have been released.
