"Police are searching for a man who fired approximately 10 rounds in front of a Scottsdale nightclub early Monday.

According to police, the man fired the shots around 1 a.m. in front of Myst Nightclub near Camelback and Scottsdale roads.

Myst did not have any patrons; however, officials said other bars in the area were open during the time of the incident.

A nearby cab traveling near the nightclub was struck twice on the driver’s side door, according to police.

The cab driver did not have any passengers in his vehicle at the time and there are no other known victims.

Police said the possibility that the suspect was firing randomly in the air and down the street is being investigated.

The shooter is described as a short male wearing a dark jacket. He fled on foot towards Camelback Road.

If you have any information regarding this incident, please contact police."

We feel bad for the Texas and Ohio natives who were out trying to enjoy Scottsdale while in town for the Fiesta Bowl - and for Scottsdale for the subsequent bad image its leaving them with.  It is, however, very fortunate that Myst is closed on Sundays and luckily the area was pretty empty.

Bar patron Will Hayes was trying to cut through the parking lot behind Six Lounge when police officers stopped and redirected him and his friends.  "They had the whole area taped off, and practically every police car in the city there.  We had no idea what was going on.  The officer who stopped us seemed to be going out of his way to get us out of there while telling us as little as possible."

We also heard horror stories of various bar goers who could not get to their cars until well after 4am.  Sundays are always interesting in Old Town!
