Bond set for bouncer accused of shooting two people at bar on N. Detroit

TOLEDO, Ohio (WTVG) - A Lucas County judge set bond Tuesday for a man accused of shooting two people at a bar over the weekend.

Court documents show Everett Taylor, 66, is facing two Felonious Assault charges. A judge set his bond at $200,000 on Tuesday.

According to Toledo Police records, Taylor was working as a bouncer at a bar in the 2600 block of N. Detroit early Sunday morning when he allegedly shot a 42-year-old and a 36-year-old in their legs. One victim was treated for their injuries at the scene and the other was treated at an area hospital.

Witnesses told officers that the incident started when Taylor got into an argument with one of the shooting victims. Another person tried to intervene in the argument. That’s when Taylor allegedly pulled out a gun and fired the shots that hit the two people.
