Two Omaha men died Saturday night in a shooting at the I-29 Speedway in Pacific Junction, Iowa.
Marcus L. Johnson, 28, and Charles A. Williams Jr., 27, were killed about 9 p.m., according to the Iowa Department of Public Safety. No other injuries were reported.
I-29 Speedway was hosting the Pull Up Car Show and Music Fest, which featured music by rappers Lil Boosie, Rob49 and Rich the Factor. The outdoor concert was about to begin inside the venue when the shooting occurred in the parking lot.
A spokesman for I-29 Speedway said Sunday that the incident occurred “totally away” from the concert area. Pacific Junction is located about 23 miles southeast of Omaha.
The Mills County Sheriff’s Office is investigating the incident with the assistance of the Iowa Division of Criminal Investigation, Iowa State Patrol, Omaha Police Department and several surrounding law enforcement agencies.
