They say he was only in his mid 20s.
According to relatives at the scene, the shooting all started during a fight inside the bar.
Antoinette Simpson, Haggen's cousin, told 7 Action News the fight was about a girl that D’Angelo or one of his friends spoke to inside the bar.
This is D'Angelo's cousin, Antoinette Simpson. I asked her what her cousin was like. This is what she had to say. My heart goes out to here and D'Angelo's family @wxyzdetroit https://t.co/qb0XPYGn1d pic.twitter.com/43FfOMjUmk

The fight escalated once the group tried to leave the bar, and that is when D’Aneglo was shot. His cousin tells me this is a devastating blow for the whole family.
Police have not released any further information.
The investigation is ongoing.
