3 People Shot at Meriden Sports Bar

MERIDEN, CT - Two men and a woman were shot and wounded early Sunday at the Noiise sports bar on Lewis Avenue in Meriden, according to police.

Medical conditions of the victims were not immediately known, but one of the men required transportation to a trauma hospital via LifeStar. The other male victim was taken to an area trauma hospital, police said. The female shooting victim was shot once in the leg, and another female victim also suffered a foot injury but was not shot.

The shooting occurred at about 1:55 a.m. Police received multiple 911 calls from patrons spilling out of the bar, but two officers were on-duty near the site and also heard the gunshots.

"[The officers] immediately responded; however, the person responsible for the shooting had already fled the scene and there were already numerous bar patrons outside of the bar as they had exited when the shots were fired," said Sgt. Darrin McKay in a statement.

Meriden police detectives are currently investigating this incident and ask that anyone with information regarding the shooting contact Det. John Wagner at 203-630-6334.
