| GUNFIRE ALL OVER THE PLACE - Charleston Police are searching for two black
men who fled authorities after the white Mercedes they were in crashed on the
West Side Saturday.
A black male punched Diablo Brown, 33, in the face outside of George's
Lounge. A suspect then went to a nearby car, grabbed a handgun and fired six
or seven rounds at Brown.
Everyone fled the lounge after shots went through the building.
Later, Brown was at a different location when two black men in the Mercedes
pulled up. The driver pulled out a handgun and fired several rounds directly at
Brown.
The suspects later turned onto Poplar Avenue and crashed the Mercedes at
the end of the dead-end street. They fled the scene.

St. Francis Hospital Sunday afternoon after being shot while sitting in his car

left drugs in Payne's car. When Payne said there were no drugs in the car, the
