Metro violent crimes detectives are sorting out the details of an altercation in front of a nightclub on West Bay Street Sunday that left two men with gunshot wounds.
Jeremy Kenneth Hardin, 25, who is stationed at Fort Stewart, was transported to Memorial University Medical Center with wounds considered non-life threatening when Downtown Precinct patrol officers found him at West Bay and Whitaker streets about 3 a.m.
Nathaniel Jackson, 24, of an Abercorn Street address in Savannah’s south side, called Savannah-Chatham police about an hour later from Candler Hospital where he had sought treatment of a less serious wound.
The shooting was reported at West Bay and Bull streets outside Club Rain when two groups of men became involved in an altercation and shots were fired. Friends helped Hardin flee a block east to Whitaker where they flagged down officers responding to the shooting.
The investigation into the shootings is continuing. Anyone with information is asked to call CrimeStoppers at (912) 234-2020 or text CRIMES (274637). Tipsters remain anonymous and may qualify for a cash reward.
