YOUNGSTOWN, Ohio — Three people were killed and multiple others are injured as a result of multiple shootings and a fatal car accident near a bar in Youngstown, early Saturday morning.
At least three people were injured by apparent gunshot wounds, with at least one person in critical condition, according to Youngstown Police.
The incidents took place at three separate crime scenes near the Torch Club Bar and Grill on Salt Springs Road, officials told WFMJ.
