SAN ANTONIO – San Antonio police have identified the second victim killed in a shooting outside a Northwest Side hookah bar earlier this week.
Kyung Lee, 50, was identified in an updated SAPD preliminary report Friday morning. His cause and manner of death were not immediately available from the Bexar County Medical Examiner’s Office.
On Thursday, the Bexar County Medical Examiner’s Office identified the first victim as 27-year-old Derek Dashaun Brown.
Background
The shooting happened around 1:25 a.m. Wednesday in the 4500 block of North Loop 1604 West, just past Northwest Military Highway.
According to an SAPD preliminary report, a man was kicked out of the bar following an alleged altercation inside.
Later, the man drove by the bar and began shooting toward a crowd gathered in an outdoor smoking area in front of the bar, police said.
The driver then fled from the scene and has not been found. The age and description of the shooter are unclear.
Brown and Lee were hit by gunfire. Both were later pronounced dead at the scene, police said.
No one else was injured during the shooting.
One witness, a videographer working at the bar, had just left the outdoor area before the shooting.
“As soon as I walked in the door, that’s when I heard the gunshots fire,” said Vinnie Guerra. “I didn’t really think of anything at first, but until I looked back and saw two bodies, then I actually started getting into a panic mode.”
Guerra told KSAT later Wednesday he heard around 20 gunshots.
SAPD received eight 911 calls on Wednesday morning after the shooting, according to calls requested by KSAT.
