JACKSONVILLE, Fla. — The Jacksonville Sheriff's Office is looking for a man they said fired shots outside Wacko’s Gentlemen’s Club Friday night, landing one man in the hospital.

The witness, who did not want to be identified, said, “I was in shock. I can’t believe there was gunfire at the time that we were trying to have a good time.”
The witness and his four friends said the shooter was in his 20s, between 5-foot-10 and 6 feet tall and no more than 160 pounds.
Police said the shooter fired multiple shots at the driver of a Camaro.
The witness said, “He floors it into the side of a building, crashes and then gets out of his car and starts running into the neighborhood.”
Witnesses said the shooter also ran before he jumped into a car and took off.
Police said they are looking for surveillance video in the area.
Action News Jax requested the video from a camera at Wacko's and a camera across the street.
The victim’s friend said he was shot in the head and he does not know the motive.
