The Palm Beach County Sheriff's Office has released the names of two men who were killed in a shooting at a Lake Worth Beach Irish pub early Tuesday morning.

Christopher Allen, 33, and Steven Stratis, 24, have been identified as the two men pronounced dead at the scene of a shooting at The Rock Irish Pub overnight Tuesday. Two other men were wounded in the shooting. One is in critical condition, the other is in stable condition.

All four men were employees at Old Key Lime House. Staff told WPTV they were out celebrating their annual holiday party, and a group of employees went to The Rock Irish Pub to pay pool.

According to a preliminary investigation, an altercation occurred inside the pub, which led to the shooting.

The Violent Crimes Division is investigating this as a homicide.

WPTV's Zitlali Solache says she spoke with Allen's mother by phone yesterday. She was understandably upset and says her son was a wonderful person who always looked out for everyone.

Police are still seeking info on the shooter. Anyone with information should contact Crime Stoppers at 1-800-458-TIPS.
