DES MOINES, Iowa (AP) - Iowa authorities say they have no suspects in an early morning shooting outside a strip club that left a Florida man dead.

 

      Polk County sheriff's office Sgt. Jana Abens says Monday that investigators are continuing interviews but haven't identified suspects in the shooting, which happened early Sunday outside Big Earl's Gold Mine club, just north of Des Moines.

 

      Authorities found 23-year-old Reginald Renard Bryan Jr., of Orange City, Fla., with a gunshot wound. He died later at a Des Moines hospital. His home town wasn't available.

 

      Polk County Medical Examiner Dr. Gregory Schmunk confirmed Monday that Bryan was a victim of a homicide.

 

      More than 300 people were gathered outside the strip club when the shooting occurred.

 

      Another man, 24-year-old Matthew Millsap of Des Moines, was shot in the leg.
