Three days after his hit-and-run, Jeffrey his pub staff sent a message to the community, expressing their grief and acknowledging the staff who took immediate action.

"We are deeply saddened by the loss of life in this senseless and abominable act," the post read. "Our hearts go out to the families of the innocent and those who have been hurt and affected. Our priority is to come together as a community to heal this terrible tragedy. "

The bar was closed the weekend after the tragedy, but has since reopened.
