MUNCIE, Ind. — Gunshots were fired into a bar near the Ball State University campus over the weekend as police said about 20 people were inside.

The manager of the Chug told police that two people were told they were too drunk to enter but returned about 2:30 a.m. Saturday, with one shooting a gun. One shot went through the front door and struck a steel beam where customers were standing.

Bouncer Tyler Jenkins told The Star Press of Muncie he was hit by shattered glass but didn't need treatment. No other injuries were reported.

No arrests were immediately made.
