2 Topgolf employees shot, injured in Germantown

Police are still searching for the person who shot two people around closing time

GERMANTOWN, Md. — Two employees at Topgolf are suffering from injuries after an overnight shooting inside the Germantown location.

Authorities with the Montgomery County Police Department confirmed to WUSA9 that the call for the shooting came in just after midnight on Tuesday. They then responded to the Topgolf, located on Century Boulevard, off of Germantown Road. The location was set to close at midnight.

Both of the Topgolf employees have been confirmed to be men. They were taken to a local hospital to be treated for their injuries. One of the men, an 18-year-old, was shot in the leg and the other, a 23-year-old, was shot in the torso area. Their injuries are said to be serious, but not life-threatening. 

The suspect in the case has not been publicly identified or arrested. Witnesses who spoke to WUSA9 on the condition of anonymity said the shooter was a customer who got into an "altercation" with the two employees. 

Montgomery County investigators were at Topgolf Tuesday reviewing evidence and intensifying the search for the suspect who fled in a car before responding officers had arrived on scene. No description has been released and no arrest has been announced. 

Anyone who may have information about the case is asked to call Montgomery County Crime Solvers at 1-866-411-TIPS.
