A police source told Lusa that the assault outside the bar happened at around 4am.
The three men were “transported under their own power” to the García de Orta hospital in Almada, with one of them, 40, pronounced dead in that hospital ward, the same source said.
One of the other two, 22, was seriously injured, while the other, 21, suffered minor injuries, police said.
Another man, who suffered a gunshot wound and was considered to have a minor injury, was taken to Barreiro Hospital, he added.
