A dispute that began at the Mirage Gentlemen’s Lounge on Route 109 ended in gunfire and the death of 33-year-old Frank Myers of Wyandanch. On May 14, 2019, Myers was a passenger in a 2017 Mercedes-Benz with five others when, about 3:05 a.m. as the car traveled westbound on Route 109 in East Farmingdale, another vehicle pulled alongside and multiple rounds were fired into the Mercedes. Myers was struck and pronounced dead at the scene by a Nassau County Police advanced medical technician. A 27-year-old female passenger was wounded and taken to hospital; the other four occupants were physically uninjured.

Shell casings were found near the lounge, and investigators say the altercation there likely precipitated the shooting. Suffolk County Police Homicide Squad detectives opened an active investigation, and as of the latest information no arrests have been made and no suspects have been publicly identified. If anyone has information about the argument at the lounge or the vehicles involved that night, please come forward.
