Arrest in Napper Tandy’s Bar Shooting

Suffolk County police Monday arrested a Fort Salonga man for allegedly shooting another man at Napper Tandy’s Irish Pub in Northport Sunday night.

Steven Reilly Jr. was arrested at his home and charged with assault, criminal possession of a weapon and criminal use of a firearm.

Police said Reilly and another man were involved in a fight “for an unknown reason” before the 39-year-old allegedly shot the victim in the leg around 10:30 p.m. Reilly then fled in a white Ford Taurus, police said.

Northport Village police said the 21-year-old victim was transported to Huntington Hospital with non-life-threatening injuries.

Reilly will be arraigned Tuesday at First District Court in Central Islip.
