(SALEM, Ore.) - About 1:30 a.m. August 18th of this year, Salem Police Department officers responded to a report of shots fired in the parking lot of the Pine Street Pub, located at 460 Pine Street Northeast in Salem.

On arrival, police and medical personnel located two gunshot victims and aided them until they were taken by ambulance to an area hospital.

40-year-old Jennifer Anne Black, of Salem, died as a result of the shooting; an unnamed 37-year-old male survived his injuries.

Black was a mother of two. The Pine Street Pub was reportedly near her home, and she often met her friends there.

"She was a regular, always happy with a smile on her face," bartender Marcos Flores told KGW.

"You wouldn’t expect either of them to get shot. They’re really nice people. They don’t ever hurt anyone. They’re never getting into altercations with anyone else so it’s kind of hard to believe."

At this point in the investigation, there is no suspect information.
