CORPUS CHRISTI -- Corpus Christi police are investigating a murder at a downtown hookah bar.

Friends identified the victim as Patrick Brailey.

It happened around 3:30 this morning after an argument at the Smokin' Waves Lounge in the 500 block of South Water Street.

Police say a group of men and women got into a fight as they were hanging out in the courtyard area of the lounge.

The suspect walked away and shot at the group with a pistol, hitting a 29 year old man.

We're told the suspect left in a red Dodge Durango.

Emergency crews rushed the victim to the hospital where he died.

Police say they have some leads on a suspect...but so far made no arrests.

Police described the suspect as an hispanic man between 20 to 29 years old.

He wore a short sleeve button up red plaid shirt and blue jeans.
