Briggs’ family told 19 News he was a co-owner of the Showcase and his family stopped at the bar while celebrating his sister’s birthday.
According to family members, Briggs stepped in to help security turn people away, because the bar was at capacity, and a fight began in front of the bar.
Briggs was shot in the legs and heads. He leaves behind two young sons.
