Three injured in shooting at Last Call

Monday, February 11, 2008

Three people were left injured after a Sunday shooting a downtown Lawrence club.

According to an Associated Press story, Lawrence police were investigating a shooting that occurred about 3 a.m. in front of the Last Call, seventh and New Hampshire streets.

According to the AP, police said a man was thrown out of the club, went to a nearby parking lot and began firing shots into a crowd of people.

The man left the scene in small dark-colored vehicle that was driven by another person.

According to the AP, people were fighting in front of the club when police arrived.

Police did not release the conditions of the three victims, but two were club employees. According to the AP, one of the victims -- a 15-year-old male from Topeka – was shot in the foot.

The suspect was described as a black male, approximately 5-foot-7, 140 to 150 pounds, and possibly wearing a black coat

This is not the first incident at Last Call. In Nov. 2007, several patrons were thrown out of the last call, and started a gunfight on Interstate 435 in Kansas City. One person was killed, and three others injured.

The Kansas Alcohol Beverage Commission denied Last Call a renewal of its liquor license in December.

Last Call had since opened on weekends as a bring-your-own-alcohol establishment.

A similar event to one in November 2007, occurred in January on Kansas Highway 10.

No one was hurt, but two arrests were made.
