As Manatee County Sheriff’s detectives work to unravel what happened outside the Atlantis Gentlemen’s Club Monday morning to lead to the death of a Bradenton man, they’re asking for help identifying two persons of interest in the case.

Dominic Orr, 27, was shot to death just before 3 a.m. Monday in the 3800 U.S. 41 N. club’s parking lot in Palmetto. Surveillance video shows Orr falling to the ground and another man running from the scene. That man has been identified as Durrell Jones, 31, of Sarasota.
