Surprised to not see this here. Interesting that there is an article about what the bar owner is going to do, but didn't see an article about just the shooting. Know a guy who used to work the door there, a few weeks ago he said that he left when they started to have to use metal detectors… maybe he knew something was coming.

Not sure rap concerts are in Destination Bryan's downtown plan. Appears to attract a rough crowd.

Yep, not what I would like to see in downtown Bryan. There is a reason people go to Bryan and not north gate.

Maybe if there's going to be a rap concert, step up patrols? Lord knows CSPD keeps Northgate locked down.

Yeah, the place took a total 180 turn when it got bought out. Went from being an old school mixology bar aimed at a more mature crowd, and turned into a Rap/EDM bar for college kids. Used to be pretty safe to hang around the LaSalle Courtyard late night/early morning, but not so sure I would anymore.

Like others have said, definitely not the vibe downtown was going for - Curious to see where it goes from here.

When did this happen? Within the last 12 months? I think I was last there for first Friday April 2022 and it was a classic rock cover band. Normal scene there.

We went in a month back looking for the piano bar that they used to have, now it's DJs several nights per week

Wondering if the current incarnation of this establishment is now attracting the type of crowd that used to frequent places like the Knight Club before it was shut down.

Knight club is still open and is literally right around the corner from CSPD.

That's Knight Club 2.0. The one shut down by Bryan was at Wellborn and Natalie, across from the Daquiri Barn.

There's some other drinking establishment there now, which apparently attracts a less troublesome crowd.

These days just being where a large crowd with many drunk is at 2am Sunday morning in an downtown entertainment area is putting yourself in a high risk situation.

Destination Bryan should add "Gunfights" to its list of things to do...

Is that why there were so many shootings at this club when it was under previous ownership?

I loved the KBTX story where they showed crews power-washing blood off the sidewalk.

Those were firefighters, not sure why it's there job to do that. Don't we have public works?

Fire and EMS likely both responded. Why not have them wash it down? Instead we should get an on call public works crew up in the middle of the night and pay them overtime to wash off the sidewalk?

It changed ownership in Dec. 21. It's progressively gotten worse since then.

As a firefighter 30 yrs ago that was part of our responsibility. Especially for FF'ers with green on the front of their helmet

Fire and EMS are one department. The video says fire fighters were "back out Sunday afternoon", not in the middle of the night, which tells me there was ample time to get someone to come out and spray down concrete.

Unless you leave it until today, you're still paying someone overtime when there's someone already getting paid available to do it.

Sometimes overtime helps get the bills paid and some people like that

They shouldn't be wasting money sitting around the fire station. Let's keep those firefighters busy all the time doing manual labor

I'll drop it after this.

Springfield CT, average cost is $1,300 per call
https://www.news-leader.com/story/news/local/ozarks/2014/07/12/cost-calling-firefighters/12579321/

Maybe we should ask BFD what their cost per call is…

I doubt there is a more expensive way to have a sidewalk washed down.

I'll give you a jug of bleach and a scrub brush if it will keep you away from your keyboard for a little while!

I think you mean a rough crowd creates rap shootings. The "concert" isn't the main purpose. That may be the ALLEGED purpose....

Just leave it out there until Monday morning. Not like people take their kids to church anywhere near there….

It was likely a crime scene well past church time Sunday morning. Likely why they cleaned it in the afternoon per the KBTX report. I never said leave it till Monday either
