Noel was gunned down inside of a Melbourne sports bar one week ago.

Melbourne police said they have not made any arrests yet.
Officers told Channel 9 last week that they are combing through hours of surveillance video from inside the bar, trying to pin down a person of interest in the case.
The family said Noel was a businessman who was out that night trying to relax.
The family’s attorney, Daniel Martinez, said they believe Off the Traxx was negligent by allowing someone with a gun into the establishment.
In a statement just a few days ago, Off the Traxx offered condolences to the Noel family.
The business also said the safety and well-being of its patrons and employees was its first priority and it was cooperating with authorities.
