Gunfire erupted at a Morrow, Georgia event hall early Saturday night, April 13, 2019, leaving three teen boys injured.  According to WSBtv.com, “[t]he teens were hit by the gunfire after a large fight broke out outside LPT Studios on Lake Harbin Drive in Morrow…two boys were shot in the leg and the other was shot in the torso.”  News-Daily.com is reporting “the juveniles had been taken to local hospitals before police arrived.” The news story reports that the LPT Studios owner “rented out his studio at 2270 Lake Harbin Road for a girl’s Sweet 16 birthday party and that his “God-fearing studio” had never had any trouble before.”   No security was hired for the party according to the News-Daily.com news story.

The investigation is ongoing and no suspects or victims have been identified.

Our Legal Take

Business patrons have a right to feel safe and secure while on the premises the they are visiting. The Murray Law Firm questions the level of security provided on the property and whether this tragedy may have been prevented.

  • Have there been prior incidents of violence on or near the property?
  • Was the establishment properly staffed with security personnel for the event?
  • What security measures, such as bright lighting, visible surveillance cameras, and security personnel, were in place to deter crime and protect the victims at the time of the shooting?

Generally, property owners are required to protect all those legally on the premises from any foreseeable harm. Should the facts of this matter reveal that the property owners failed to provide adequate security to protect those on the premises, the victims may seek justice and elect to pursue legal claims for their loss.

Based upon its prior successful experience in handling security negligence claims on behalf of victims and their families, The Murray Law Firm suggests that photographs and a thorough, unbiased inspection of the property will need to be performed immediately, before any evidence may be repaired, damaged or destroyed. Given the complexities of pursuing a negligent security case, it is imperative that the victims retain an experienced attorney who can ensure the preservation of any and all evidence that may support such a claim.
