Leo David Yepiz, a 34-year-old Hispanic man, was killed in a late-night shooting at Bamboo’s Bar & Eatery, 4564 Commercial Way in Spring Hill, Florida. The Hernando County Sheriff’s Office reports the shooting occurred just after 1:30 a.m. on March 11, 2016 following a disturbance inside the bar. Deputies found two men with gunshot wounds in the bar’s parking lot; Yepiz died of his injuries and a 26-year-old man, Cesar P. Acosta, was flown to a hospital.

A 25-year-old man identified as Thomas M. Durkin was at the scene when deputies arrived, surrendered, and was transported to an area hospital with injuries. Investigators said the shooting stemmed from an altercation that escalated inside the bar. Identification of the deceased was delayed while authorities confirmed his identity by fingerprint because he had used multiple identities.

What details about the altercation or witnesses’ observations could help clarify how the fight escalated and led to the shooting?
