Three men were shot dead at point blank range at Great Lakes Dragway in Union Grove, Wisconsin Sunday night around 7:00 PM. As of now the suspect has not been found, nor has a cause been determined. Two were dead at the scene and a third victim was transported to a local hospital where he died. All three victims were black men in their 30s, and from Aurora, Illinois, according to a police spokesperson. Sunday’s event was the 9th annual Larry’s Fun Fest, billed as the largest single day drag racing event in Wisconsin, with grudge racing, dubs-n-up racing, and other non-racing activities. The three victims were standing by a food vendor according to David Beth of the Kenosha Sheriffs Department, when a man approached and shot them. Friends of the victims told police they had no idea what caused the man to shoot, nor did they recognize who he was. According to a police spokesman on the scene, they only have a vague description of the shooter, a black male with short hair and cut-off jeans in his 30s. He may have been driving a black car said the spokesperson. At this time there is no identification of the suspect nor has police offered any motive. Over 100 police officers were on scene talking to participants and spectators looking for information or possible photos or surveillance tape to help in their investigation. Local fire departments were also on hand directing traffic and helping those attending to leave the drag strip.
