SOUTH BEND — South Bend police have arrested a man in connection with one of several weekend shootings.

Investigators say 38-year-old Vincent Willis of Mishawaka shot 34-year-old Mark Buscoe in the arm outside the South Bank Bar on Lincolnway East early Saturday morning.

They believe the two had an earlier confrontation. Willis then got a gun from his car and shot Buscoe, who was sitting in the passenger seat of a friend's car.

Police are still looking for the person who shot and killed Harold Parks behind Wade's Unique Touch Car Wash on Lincolnway West Saturday evening.

Investigators are asking anyone with information about the incident to contact Lt. Brian Young or Investigator James Taylor at the Metro Homicide Unit Office at (574) 235-5009, or to call Crime Stoppers at (574) 288-STOP.

Someone asked him "what he was talking about" one too many times. Rabid Irish Fan: look up fbi stats - violent crime is worse in SB than Gary. I'm moving out of the midwest. A New Yorker recently stated that people outside the midwest look at the mid west the way people in the midwest look at Gary ; a place to avoid. Developers and factory owners get rich here, but they hide in gated communities...

It is unfortunate that people pass judgement based on what they see on TV. There is more than one side to this story. Once the truth is revealed people will understand that what they heard is not what happened. There are two families involved in this situation and what is really needed now is prayer for everyone

this place has gotten totally out of hand! I say pay the $5 cover and head next door to Club Landing. At least they have security and clean bathrooms! I don't know why people can't just go out, have a drink or two, and have fun. You don't have to get drunk and fight to have a good time.
