TALLAHASSEE -- A man is suing after being shot at a nightclub.
Christopher Pierre filed a complaint on June 4 in Leon County Circuit Court against GVO, LLC for negligence.
According to the complaint, on April 17, 2021, Pierre was at a nightclub owned and operated by GVO . While at the nightclub, Pierre alleged that he was shot. Pierre claims that GVO could have taken steps to provide proper security for patrons and could have prevented the incident from happening.
Pierre alleges that areas adjacent to the nightclub have "suffered numerous criminal attacks," and GVO should have taken more care to ensure an incident of violence did not happen on its premises.
Pierre is represented by Matthew C. Williams.
