SEATTLE (AP) — A 22-year-old man shot outside a Seattle nightclub early Sunday died at a hospital.

Police say a 21-year-old man wounded in the same incident is in critical condition.

The gunfire erupted in a fight as patrons were leaving the nightclub in the SoDo neighborhood. Police told KOMO (http://is.gd/Dlz1xx ) they have no information on a suspect.

It was the second straight weekend for a fatal shooting in the area. On Feb. 5, a sailor from the USS Nimitz was fatally shot in a fight outside a nightclub as it closed.
