Little Rock Police: 17 Injured After Nightclub Shooting

Police said 17 people were hurt in a shooting early Saturday after a dispute at a downtown Little Rock nightclub. The city's police chief said officers suspect multiple people fired weapons but that the incident was not terror-related.

The shooting happened at the Power Ultra Lounge, a club in a two-story building downtown about 1 mile (1.61 kilometer) east of the state Capitol. Police cordoned off the block as crime-scene technicians gathered evidence from inside and outside the club. Glass from the club's second story windows littered the ground, along with empty drink cups.

"We do NOT believe this incident was an active shooter or terror related incident. It appears to have been a dispute at a concert," the city police posted on its Twitter account overnight.

The jungle at night is a lot safer place to be than the nightclubs.

Well, what with their lucrative foodstamp fraud, prostitution and drug dealing side businesses, some of the packages are chump change.

This is hard for me to try to comprehend. I have no idea how many concerts I’ve been to, in how many different kinds of venues - and no dispute ever erupted that would have made me want to shoot somebody. Different worlds, for sure.

I live In Little Rock and my guess is this is just a night club where things got out of control. All the gangster wannabe’s and Tupac, Biggie Smalls types playing tough and carrying Glocks.

Father’s Day weekend at a local movie theater complex they had a shoot out in the parking lot. Opening weekend of the Tupac Movie, looks like all the brothers and sisters were out there to see it and a fight broke out. Wild West style. I know people who will never go back to that place and it’s one the really nice places to go for a movie.

I’ve been to plenty of concerts where there was at least 1 act I felt like shooting.

Little Rock and Capitol Police let the ferals run wild. My Mother, Brother in law and sister were on I-40 headed back to Texas when a carload of feral Obama types pulled beside them and began shooting into the car. Luckily no one was hit but when they reported the incident to the Little Rock police they couldn't get them to act against the shooters even though they had the license plate of them and plenty of evidence. They refused to press charges or even check out the incident. I haven't much use for the LR police or the city for that matter.

But, they’re charging $30 entry, and $250 VIP packages.
Wonder how many of the clientele that can afford these prices are on some kind of gubmint assistance?

EBT cards accepted. :-)

Well here is the update on the Pulse Lounge shooting.
28 people injured, two in critical condition, no one died.

They had a Rap group performing and according to the news there were two rival gangs in there to see the show.

Well no one exactly what set the shoot out off but my guess is that someone insulted someone’s girl friend, or something like that, and the next think you know it’s a wild west shootout.

The idiots running this city and police department just look clueless.
