This club was called the Clique. Due to all the shootings infront of the club and fights IN the club it was sold and later became the Epitome.
Thousands were spent refurbishing the club. It had a dining room downstairs and upstairs was the dance club.
Still shootings outside and fights inside the club persisted. Note: Within a mile of the club is one of the worst crime ridden housing projects in Chicago.
Then you have what happened last night. A sunday night party, no work today, where a fight happened on the upstairs dance floor. Mace was sprayed, everyone ran downstairs to the door (THE ONLY EXIT) but THE DOOR WAS LOCKED!!!
Everyone was squeezed up against the door. One pregnant woman suffocated to death. Others stepped on, etc. Latest I've heard is 17 dead.
