FORT WAYNE, Ind. (WANE) Police have released surveillance footage of the Friday night shooting at the Cap n' Cork on the 5700 block of South Anthony Blvd.  Officers are currently seeking two people of interest and one suspect in connection with the shooting.

According to the Fort Wayne Police Department, Christopher M. Mhoon , 27, of Fort Wayne was killed around 9:15 p.m . Friday.  He was shot multiple times and found dead at the scene.

In the surveillance footage, the first person of interest could be seen purchasing alcohol inside the liquor store. As he was walking out, he came into contact with Mhoon.  The two began to fight.

A second person of interest ran in next.  Police think he was trying to break up the fight.  Then, the shooting suspect wearing khaki pants came in.  Police say he shot and killed Mhoon.

The three fled the scene together.

"We are able to tell that they are wearing the same type of shirt or the same kind of shirt.  So we believe that those three, the first two being persons of interest the third being our shooter our suspect, are associates," said Raquel Foster with the Fort Wayne Police Department.  "They are acquaintances.  They likely arrived at the store together."

Police don't think it was a random attack.

Witnesses who saw the shooting also fled the scene and still haven't contacted police.

If you recognize any of the people in surveillance video, police ask you to report it to Crime Stoppers at 436-STOP, 1-800-237-STOP or provide information online .  You can do so anonymously.
