Bungalow Joe’s owner in disbelief after 3 men killed in 'totally random' shooting at restaurant

LOUISVILLE, Ky. (WDRB) -- Joe Bishop was still in disbelief the day after three customers were killed in a shooting at his restaurant, Bungalow Joe’s Bar and Grill.

"I didn't think I'd be scrubbing blood off my patio on a Saturday morning," Bishop told WDRB News. "I thought I was getting ready for everybody to watch the ballgame."

Bishop said he had just gone to sleep when he got a call around 11:15 p.m. Friday from one of his managers about a shooting at the restaurant. When he got to the scene, one of the victims had been rushed to a hospital, and two others were lying on the patio. According to Bishop, it was a normal Friday night at Bungalow Joe’s when a man walked up to the restaurant and shot three customers, all men, who were sitting in the patio area at point-blank range.

"Nobody had ever seen this guy before," Bishop said, referring to the shooter. "It was a totally random act."

The men did not exchange words "at any point in time" before the shooting, according to Bishop.

"Social media is full of people saying this happened and that happened and wanted to get political with it; there was nothing political about what happened," he added.

Louisville Metro Police officers responded to the bar, located on Beulah Church Road, around 11:30 p.m. Two of the men who were shot, Toreon Jermaine Hudson, 26, and William Scott Smallwood, 48, were pronounced dead at the scene, according to the Jefferson County Coroner's Office. The other victim, Steven Matthew Head, 24, died from his injuries at University Hospital.

Michael E. Rhynes Jr., 33, was arrested just after midnight Saturday

Sounds like retribution for Breonna’s shooting, but will not be reported as such because it doesn’t fit the narrative. Had it been a White Nazi sympathizer, rush to judgement would have been instantaneous.

True. It was random, because he did not know any of the people he killed.

But he killed a White man. Intentional and premeditated.

The empowerment began under Obozo. They are told they are immune for their actions.

Who ever is paying them said they would get them out on bail immediately. They did not tell them they might get the death penalty.

Incredible #ComDem_Insanity.

The black shirts (as opposed to the brown shirts) are gathered in the streets and intend to take over the country.

We shall see how this plays out soon. If they think they want a race war or a communist coup, this may not end as they have been told it will.

By the definitions in this matter, the deaths at the World Trade Center on 9/11 were just ‘totally random’.

This is the saddest and most troubling statement I’ve seen in this whole mess. The national media will not cover this, but should.

Try and find an update on this story. It doesn’t exist. Memory-holed harder than any black-on-white story since Newsom/Christian.

I’ll look a little deeper, I found vague statements 2 days later than my original post.

This is a strange treatment of the incident by Russia Times.

I switched over to Google instead of DuckDuckGo.com and found a Russian Times article about it, it reference some twitter discussion. When I searched for his complete name on Twitter there were ZERO hits. And When I did other searches there were none for anything related to the shooting.

Yes, It appears the great vacuum cleaner in the Cloud must have eaten it.

I had Pale Moon browser and IE both going and my machine completely locked up. IE would not respond to anything. Had to close out Pale Moon and when IE still did not respond I did a reboot and cleaned out the files before rebooting Pale Moon.

Wow of the 4 Twitter references in that article, Blacklamb has been suspended, and Cassandra Fairbanks deleted her post, which means Jake's reply to CassandraRules has no context. So really only one post survives. That's crazy blackout stuff.

But *ahem* turning over some stones, he's still inside jail on 2M bond (Ky v Rhynes, 20-CR-001749); and his big pre-trial is soon: Aug 12. So with the help there will be some reporting on his case next month, even if it's just FreeRepublic. Thanks for your help!

Thanks for an update.

This is a very sad troubling incident.

His lawyer was right, the legal process is terribly distorted by the ComDem political maneuvers trying to placate the mob they have empowered.
