Dramatic video of a Stamford, Conn., shooting that left five people injured over the weekend has surfaced, showing a clear view of the suspect firing into a crowded parking lot.
Witnesses posted the video on social media and police have the footage in evidence.
Police say the altercation, which took place outside of a club, stemmed from an argument over a woman. Stamford police arrested Dayrong Wills, 22, who admitted that he was involved in the shooting in the parking lot for Tino’s Nightclub at 84 West Park Place in Stamford.
The video shows a man in a red shirt, who police say is Wills, pulling a gun out in a crowded parking lot and several people ducking for cover as the man fired successive shots.
Wills pulled his gun on another person he got into an altercation with and fired shots at the individual, he told police. Police received reports of a shooting at about 1:38 a.m. July 13. Responding officers heard gunshots being fired as they arrived at what they described as a “chaotic scene” and discovered five people who were shot.
Four men and one woman were taken to an area hospital to be treated for gunshot wounds “to their upper and lower extremities,” police said. The injuries appear to be non-life threatening, police said.
Police continue their investigation, but it is not clear whether the person Wills got into the dispute with was one of the wounded. Wills was charged with five counts of first-degree assault, first-degree reckless endangerment, unlawful discharge of a firearm, and possession of marijuana.
He remains on a $1 million bond.
Stamford police are asking for the public’s help in the investigation. Anyone with information on the shooting is asked to call the Stamford Police Detective Bureau at 203-977-4417. You can watch the disturbing video of the shooting above.
