Woohoo just one more reason for the Greek reputation to be tarnished.
DALLAS, Texas (AP) -- A teenager was killed, a man was wounded and a car full of young women was sprayed with bullets during shootings outside a fraternity event at a downtown banquet hall, police said.
About 1,500 people milling about outside Eddie Deen's Ranch had been denied entry to the event hosted by two chapters of the Alpha Phi Alpha fraternity on Saturday night, police said.
Pierre Malone, 16, was shot in the back and arm as he tried to flee in a car with six friends. He died in the arms of a friend.
"There were 15 of them coming after us," said Mark Omere, a high school senior who had been standing in line with Malone outside the club.
A 20-year-old man was hit in the leg about the same time Malone was killed; investigators were looking into whether he was caught in the crossfire of that shooting.
Earlier in the night, a 19-year-old woman and her two friends told police a man from another car fired at their silver Ford Mustang with an assault-style weapon.
Their car had to be towed after bullets punctured the gas tank, but the occupants were not injured. Police arrested a man.
Fire marshals at the club enforced occupancy limits throughout the night at the "Ice Storm II" party.
The Fraternity chapters hosting the event were from the University of North Texas and Texas A&M-Commerce.
