One man is dead, another in custody after a late night fight in New Britain.
 
A man from that city is now charged with murder.
           
43-year-old David Lopez is being held on one million dollars bond. Police say he turned himself in after a fight on south main street late Saturday night.
           
After receiving numerous 911 calls about a fight in progress at 315 South Main Street, New Britain officers responded to the scene to find a 20-year-old man, also from New Britain, suffering from a gunshot wound.  He was rushed to the Hospital of Central Connecticut.
           
The victim, whose name is not being released, later died at the hospital.
           
The investigation is continuing at this time by the New Britain Police Department Criminal Investigation Division and the New Britain State's Attorney's Office.
