Man shot dead, another slashed with broken bottle in two fights outside Queens club








A man was shot and killed outside a Richmond Hill night club this morning.

Kwasi Olatunji, 36, of Canarsie, was struck several times in the torso during one of at least two bar brawls at the Flavor Lounge on Hillside Avenue, police said.

The gunfire erupted outside the bar around 3:30 a.m., cops added. Olatunji was rushed to Jamaica Hospital, where he was pronounced dead.

A second fight at the lounge left a 27-year-old man with a gash to the leg after an attacker slashed him with a broken bottle, police said. That victim was taken to Jamaica Hospital in stable condition, according to cops. His name has not been released.



It’s unclear what caused the two fights, which did not appear to be related, according to police sources.

No arrests have been made in either attack.
