Officials said the shooting happened Saturday night at bar called Jack’s Apple Pub on College Avenue, just east of Richmond Street.

When officers arrived, people were leaving the building. An officer going in through a door on S. State Street encountered a person with a gun and shot them. Police on the scene told us officers exchanged gunfire with the shooter.

Police went into the bar and began rendering aid. The person they say was the shooter died at the hospital.
