Man arrested, accused in fatal shooting early Sunday outside Terrell night club, PD says

Authorities have arrested a man accused of fatally shooting another early Sunday outside of a night club in Terrell, police said.

Shortly after 2 a.m., officers from the Terrell Police Department were dispatched to a shooting in the 300 block of FM 148, at Swings Doors club according to police. Terrell is a city in Kaufman County about 37 miles east of downtown Dallas.

Responding officers found a man, identified as Bryan Squires, 27, who had been shot, police said. Squires, of Terrell, was taken to a medical facility in Forney — about 12 miles west of Terrell — where he died.

Investigators believe Nicholas Longoria, 34, and his girlfriend were in an argument with a “group of guys” inside the night club at the location, according to police.

“The altercation led to the club parking lot where Longoria allegedly shot the victim,” police said in a Sunday news release, adding that multiple witnesses confirmed the identity of the gunman.

Longoria, also of Terrell, was arrested Sunday morning on unrelated charges, but is now facing a murder charge, according to the news release.

It was unclear Sunday evening whether Longoria had an attorney, and his bail information was not immediately available.
