WATERBURY,CT â€” More than two dozen gunshots were fired early Saturday morning in the parking lot of Pandora's Cabaret, a strip club on Washington Avenue, in one of the largest-scale shootings in the city's history.

"In my 23-year career, I can't recall us having this amount of shots fired in one incident," Police Chief Vernon Riddick Jr. said.

Guns were fired at least 29 times in the parking lot of Pandora's Cabaret in Waterbury after a fight began in the bar early Saturday morning. Three people suffered minor gunshot wounds. Police are looking for the shooters.

MH is on the money. The three wounded were probably innocent bystanders.

They need more gun training or a new police force

shooters need to practice more by playing duckhunter on Nintendo. minor injuries would then increase from 3 to 5-6 wounded.

@Mikey-For the most part, gabgbangers are horrible shots-they pray and spray. That being said, back in the 90's, I saw these bangers practicing drive-by's at Lytle Creek. Talk about nutty.

I know thugs who went into the service. They became good shots. One buddy in Iraq use to talk gang shit to the Iraqis. He's a dick but funny.

^^^ Ever see Stan Lee's Superhumans? The fastest quick draw dude ever, hit two targets from the hip. You only heard one shot! Even the computor readout could barely tell the difference!

Yup. I saw LDK on Superhumans. Fastest nut, ever. Even the dancer didn't know that he came so quick.
