Eugene Police Officers stand outside the taped-off area where a shooting happened early this morning outside The Davis.

Shots fired in downtown Eugene brought police outside The Davis Restaurant and Bar early Saturday morning.

The Eugene Police Department says several officers heard gunfire at 2:18 am and responded. They found one man shot and another detained by a bystander.

The detained man –23-year-old Kelon Donald Logan – is the lone suspect in the shooting. After being taken into custody, he was charged with assault in the first degree and unlawful use of a weapon.

Officers provided emergency medical aid to the victim, as a crowd gathered. Both the victim and Logan were taken to a hospital.

An EPD spokesperson confirms that the victim was seriously wounded but expected to survive. Detectives were talking with him Saturday.

Tips on the shooting can be called in to EPD Detective Cliff Sites to 541-682-5147.
