HOUSTON (KTRK) -- One person is dead and two others are in the hospital this morning after shots rang out in the street in front of a southwest Houston strip club.
It happened around 5:30am in the 6300 block of Richmond Avenue near Unity, outside the Legends club.
Police are still trying to sort out what happened. The victims in the shooting were apparently riding in a white car, which remains at the scene this morning.
It's unclear whether the shooters or victims were at the club, which stays open until 6am.
Eastbound lanes of the roadway are blocked while police comb the scene for evidence. Investigators marked off shell casings on the ground. From that, it appears at least 10 shots were fired.
No one is in custody at this time. We're at the scene waiting for additional details. Please stay with Eyewitness News and abc13.com for updates.

You can see the results of what that type of crowd does when you let them in your club and they linger around the parking lot.
from a recent review...
"very intimidating place if you're not the kind of guy who looks like he jus came out of prison"
I’ve been in worse black SCs in worse hoods; Legends does not seem as hood or as in bad a hood as many black SCs; but you never know whom may be showing up in these types of establishments especially when there are a lot of people in the place.
"… very intimidating place if you're not the kind of guy who looks like he jus came out of prison …"
As I mentioned in the previous post; it’s a black club.
I’ve read similar review comments made w.r.t. other black clubs. I would venture to say if one is not black; one may be, or feel a bit, “intimidated†in an all-black club. Most black SCs are dives and very few are upscale – so one will often see a hood crowd in these non-upscale black SCs.
Black SCs offer a different experience. If one is not black and can get what they want in a “safe†upscale white/mixed SC; then might as well “stay awayâ€.
People that go to black dives go there b/c it’s different – and that difference can be both good and bad (depending on one’s preferences and what they are looking for).
