A wild-west style shootout involving at least 5 gunmen took place in a bar in Toledo, Ohio. Surveillance cameras in the bar, Route 66 Kitchen, caught the entire shooting on tape, and the police is trying to identify the ones who started it.

Fortunately, no one had reported injury, thank to a combination of good luck and possibly bad aims.

Deputy Police Chief Don Kenney said the fight apparently started when a employee asked a man who was selling marijuana to leave. However, the aggression seemed to have come from other patrons. The conflict was physical at first, and one minute later gun shots were fired.

The brawl quickly became a shootout that lasted for about three minutes with men pulling out guns and firing at individuals beyond the range of cameras. Video from the outside of the bar shows a man firing a gun inside the establishment through a door. Seventeen shell casings were recovered.

No arrests have been made.
