At the "Bash," gunfire broke out in the over-sold club and Paul Briley,
age 22, a college student, received a permanent injury caused by a
bullet wound to his foot.
The lawsuit alleges that:
-
it was highly probable that the "Bash" would pose a danger to the
safety of party attendants, including the Plaintiff;
-
shooting incidents has occurred at similar concerts hosted by Brown
under similar circumstances within six months before the Plaintiff was
shot;
-
at least four or more violent events and/or shootings occurred at the
Fiesta Nightclub within a year before the Plaintiff was shot;
-
in August 2009 Brown was sentenced to five years of pobation for
beating his girlfriend;
-
in June 2012 Brown and his body guards were involved in a violent
altercation in New York;
-
in August 2014, during a party hosted by Brown, gun shots were fired
at the 10AK nightclub in Los Angeles;
-
in September 2014 there was a stabbing at Supperclub in Hollywood
after Brown performed which led to the Los Angeles Police Department's
attempt to ban Brown and his entourage from all nightclubs in the Los
Angeles area;
-
from 2009 through 2015 Brown demonstrated contempt for the law by
violating probation, leaving California without Court permission and
committing acts of violence;
-
from 2011 through 2015 Brown's public appearances were marked by
violence, establishing a reasonable likelihood of violence at Brown
events and confirming the hallmark of a Brown event would foreseeably
be a wake of violence, guns and/or shootings.
"This shooting should never have happened," said attorney Richard
Alexander. "Brown's managers and the concert promoters know
that violence follows in Brown's wake. Chris Brown controlled the terms
on which he would work, right down to the food and beverages in his
dressing room. He can and should demand the same level of security for
his fans as his bodyguards provide for him."
