Yep. Outside Lure. Their days may be numbered.Downtown2007 wrote:Did anybody hear this last night at Tucker and Washington? Looks like it stepped from the group at Lure nightclub.
"Two St. Louis police officers were on their way to break up a fight in a downtown parking lot early this morning when a man fired shots at them.
At least that's the word from police, who say the shots came from a man standing outside a newer, gray Pontiac Grand Prix with tinted windows. The incident happened at about 2:30 a.m. in the 1100 block of St. Charles Street. Police give this account:"

Is there anyone else we can contact in addition to the alderman?innov8ion wrote:Yeah, I woke up to gunshots around 2:30am last night. I counted at least 15-20 police cars and a few cops w/ german shepards. Below is some video of the aftermath. By the time I had taken this video, most of the mob had dispersed.
It's basically chaotic every Thursday night around closing time at Lure. A murder occurred stemming from the same club a few years back. The club promoters and the format are to blame, because the other nights aren't so bad.
Phyllis Young is the alderman. Let her know what you think about Lure bringing crime into our neighborhood on Thursday nights - http://stlcin.missouri.org/alderman/alderman.cfm?Ward=7

Thanks for the additional info. It's important that neighbors and other interested parties speak out if they want downtown and Washington Avenue to stay a safe and conducive environment to live, work, and play.

The other part of the promotion componet is the co-owner of Lure named Phil. It appears he is also associated with http://www.liquidassets-events.com. If you are tired of the noise, garbage, etc I would recommend you calling Lure at 241-LURE.
People can do as they wish but from what I read of the Dolce article, the excise commissioner came in downstream. Also, the nuisance property database isn't geared towards bars. The contacts above should be a great start.Downtown2007 wrote:Would contacting the Excise Commissioner or the Nuisance property data base be of any help?
Kraiberg is probably the best person to call (as I already have). He has the power to yank their liquor license.Downtown2007 wrote:Would contacting the Excise Commissioner or the Nuisance property data base be of any help?
I would already consider this situation as downstream. The club has attracted a very rough crowd on Thursday nights for the past 6 months. There are other nights I am suspect as well. We all predicted something like this happening and thankfully no one was hurt. If a cop or bystander was injured or killed it would have been a nightmare. It mat be worth contacting Krailberg to may sure this stays on the radar.innov8ion wrote:People can do as they wish but from what I read of the Dolce article, the excise commissioner came in downstream.
