Man claiming to be a UFC fighter shoots 8 people in a bar in Texas

“At about 11.30pm we got a call for shots being fired from a bar across the street. Officers arrived on the scene and what they found was that eight people had been shot from the bar across the street,” Chief McManus said.

“One of the two males then made a statement that, ‘Don’t you know who I am? I’m a UFC fighter from California’ — and they walked away.

“He then walked back to his car, pulled out a long rifle, walked back across the street and he opened fire.

“He hit eight individuals. None of them are deceased. They are in stable condition. The most serious one was one that was hit in the back.”

Of the 8 victims, 5 were women and 3 were men. No one was mortally wounded while 2 only suffered grazes and declined hospital treatment.
