A little excitement in town last night, We occasionally eat at Fat Daddy's- From The Pittsburgh Tribune Review
A Texas man walked into a Ligonier tavern Monday night carrying a semi-automatic rifle and killed another patron with a single shot after the two had argued, authorities said.
The suspect was held by other patrons until police arrived and arrested him, authorities said.
The victim of the shooting at 6:48 p.m. at Fat Daddy's Pub and Grille was identified as Donald R. Holler of Cook Township.
Within minutes after the shooting, the suspect, Stephen Paul Fromholz, 40, of San Antonio was taken into custody at the tavern by Ligonier Borough Police Chief John Berger.
Berger said he arrived at the restaurant and tavern, located along Route 30 between Grant Street and Hadley Alley, about 30 seconds after he received the call and saw patrons running out of the tavern and motioning for him to go inside. He used his police cruiser as a shield when he drove into the tavern's parking lot.
Two patrons who had wrestled the suspect to the ground held him there until Berger was able to handcuff him, he said.
