6 injured and 1 dead Sunday morning in the Shooting at Nocturnal.
Place is a hole and needs to be put to rest. Glenn is a scumbag that doesn't pay his bills. If the system worked how it was supposed to, these 26 yr old wouldn't have lost his life.

Just received this email........
On Saturday night Downtown Miami was the scene of yet another unconscionable crime against it's citizens and visitors. A young gentleman by the name of Brandon Marquis McGhee was brutally shot and killed within the walls of the nightclub Nocturnal, and seven more were injured in the crossfire which end result was the death of yet another one of Miami-Dade County's young citizens.
For years, the Downtown Entertainment District has been the location of some of the most rapid growth in the country. Nightclubs, restaurants, and lounges have sprung up in this once-destitute area to help lay the foundations for condos and office buildings. Unfortunately over the past few years, less than honest businesspeople have chosen to set up shop in this neighborhood, and unfortunately this list includes the nightclub Nocturnal.
Since it's inception, Nocturnal has been built on a sham. Unpaid construction loans, numerous tax liens, several foreclosures and other underhanded maneuvering have resulted in a business that has become a pox on the district. As a result of these indiscretions, Nocturnal has built up a substantial financial burden, which has led to financial and operational cut backs. Most notably, Nocturnal's security apparatus is the most lax in all of South Florida, leading to this business allowing anyone with the requisite money in their pockets admission into their venue, regardless of threat level.
Last night, Nocturnal's greed and desperation finally caught up with them, leading to the murder of Mr. McGhee, and the injury of many of the venue's patrons, which has become the most egregious assault within a Miami nightclub property in decades. Unfortunately this situation could have been avoided. Other entertainment venues in the area, such as Club Space, institute stringent security measures working closely with NET (Neighborhoods Enhancement Team), MEDA (Miami Entertainment District) and the Miami Police Department to secure the safety of its patrons and our streets. Nocturnal, in their greed and desperation, chooses to ignore the tenets of common human decency, and allows their venue to be compromised by individuals bent on mayhem and destruction.
As the pioneer of the Parkwest Entertainment District and the owner of Club Space, I must recommend that Nocturnal's permits to operate be revoked and that the venue be closed immediately. I warned Nocturnal's owner Glenn Koffman that someone would get killed if Nocturnal kept hosting "gangster" parties. I honestly feel drastic measures are needed at this point in order to guarantee the safety and security of our neighborhood, residents and patrons. We cannot abide by those who choose to flout the laws of our city, state, and nation, as well as the guidelines of common human decency just to turn a penny.
Nocturnal and Glenn Koffman, this is not a threat, but a declaration. We will not stand by while you keep endangering honest lives and desecrating the area which we and others have toiled so much to build and improve. Our status as decent citizens and human beings will not permit it. It is time you closed shop and exit this neighborhood before you place any more lives at risk.

They can't pay their bills. How do you expect them to pay for security guards that actually give a about their job? |

Yes they did. Glenn ended up filing bankruptcy on all his personal assets. The new auction is on Oct. 17th. There was some issues with it though and with this new ocurrence don't be surprised if those doors stay closed until that date |
