An evening to celebrate the life of Anton 'Munch' Albert at Tom & Jerry's

Starting tonight at 7, Tom & Jerry's is celebrating the life of Anton "Munch" Albert,  a patron fatally shot in the early hours of March 1 at the longtime Elizabeth Street bar.

Per Tom & Jerry's:
The entire proceeds from that evening's sales will be donated to his family, so we hope you can join us for what will be a poignant evening of celebration. 
Tom & Jerry's is at 288 Elizabeth St. between Houston and Bleecker.

The bar has also launched a GoFundMe to help his family pay for expenses and support his 9-year-old daughter.

Albert reportedly lived on Staten Island. He was 39.

Little information has been made public about the shooting, including a description or photo of the alleged shooter who, according to multiple published reports, fired several times into the bar, striking Albert. 

According to the Post: "Witnesses told cops there was no interaction between the two men before the shooting, but police were unsure if the victim was targeted, cops said."

    The police still have not caught the shooter yet? That is surprising with all the video surveillance cameras in the area. I hope they catch the shooter and soon.

    Why haven’t they released any video or photos of the suspect, or at least a description of the suspect? How can the public help without any information?
