PHOENIX — A man who was ejected from a strip club in Phoenix is a suspect in the shooting of a bouncer, police said.

Authorities said the early Monday shooting near Grand and 30th avenues left the unidentified security worker with a bullet in his calf. He was taken to a hospital and was expected to recover.

After the suspect was given the boot around 1 a.m., police said he went to his car, got a gun and began firing in the direction of the club.

The shooter then drove away. Police continued to search for him.
