Security guards shot and killed an armed patron at a College Park nightclub, police said.

The shooting occurred at Oceans 66 at 5058 Old National Highway early Sunday, College Park Police Sgt. Eddie Atkins told the AJC.

Jeffrey Bing, 27, died from a gunshot wound, the Fulton County Medical Examiner told the AJC.

Bing, of College Park, entered the club with a gun. When the security officers questioned him about the gun, he got unruly, police said.

“He started shooting at the security officers and patrons,” Atkins said.

Guards fired back, striking and killing Bing, police said.

Atkins said detectives are still investigating the shooting. As of Sunday evening, no charges had been filed.

Witness statements corroborated the security guards’ story, police said.

There was no answer Sunday night at Oceans 66.
