GARY, Ind. (CBS) -- One person is dead and at least five were injured after a shooting Sunday morning outside a club in Gary, Indiana.

Dvontai Wright, 25, was killed in the 1700 block of Grant Street outside the Hustle & Joe's Nightclub. Family members say he was celebrating a cousin's birthday, who was also shot. They also claimed Wright was a father of two and worked at the Majestic Star Casino.

Sources said rival gangs allegedly got into a fight and started shooting at each other after the club let out. The club owner, who did not want to be identified, disputed the fight claim.
