Members mstreck Posted July 19, 2013 Members Share Posted July 19, 2013 The son of the owner of our "home base" venue was shot in the parking lot last night. He is now in recovery and should be fine, but man... things just seem to keep getting worse. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members mstreck Posted July 22, 2013 Author Members Share Posted July 22, 2013 The incident really had nothing to do with the bar. Two gangs from surrounding towns settling a dispute and that parking lot was a conveniently located and isolated meeting place. Shawn is the owner's son and just told them to take it elsewhere. The five guys that were later arrested turned on him. He got a few punches in then" the little guy in the back" shot him in the stomach and they all fled. He had surgery on Friday and was lucky. They planned on three different surgeries, but were able to get everything back together in three hours. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members FitchFY Posted July 22, 2013 Members Share Posted July 22, 2013 Very glad to hear he'll recover! Prayers go out there... like working in any type of night club entertainment isn't hard enough, now we have meeting spots for gangs? Eff those a-holes.

Members SLScott86 Posted July 22, 2013 Members Share Posted July 22, 2013 The local metal venue for shut down after a shooting in their lot. Despite how that sounds, the shooting happened well after they were closed and was unrelated to them. But when investigators came in to ask questions they found out that the place's licenses were very non-existent. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's all about projectile velocity and weight, not so much calibre. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
