Wedding Guest

NEWS

A wedding guest was shot early Sunday while waiting for an Uber outside a Brookhaven country club.

The man was standing with a group of other guests about 12:15 a.m., waiting for the car service outside the Capital City Country Club, when they approached who they thought was their driver.

Instead, a passenger exited from the vehicle and demanded their belongings at gunpoint, according to a police report.

The group of four turned over their valuables, but police said one man was shot in the stomach when he tried to follow the robber and negotiate with him.

The victim was identified by police as Christian Broder, 34, of Washington, D.C.

A neighbor driving by the intersection of West Brookhaven Drive and Capital City Lane called 911.
