Five people were shot at a Southeast Portland strip club in the early morning hours Saturday in what police say was a gang-related incident.

Officers and emergency medical personnel were called to Soobie's Bar & Strip Club, 333 S.E. 122nd Ave., shortly after 3 a.m. Police say they found five people suffering gunshot wounds, one with life-threatening injuries.

Police said initial indications are that it was a gang-related shooting in the strip club's parking lot. Police did not immediately offer any information on possible suspects. They ask that anyone with information about the shooting call the police non-emergency line, 503-823-3333.

    That part of town is getting to be straight-hood. There are shootings out there on an almost daily basis.

    I'm not sure any of the clubs out there are worth the risk. I haven't seen or heard anything to indicate they are fun.

    Geez when did Portland start going bad? I haven't been there in a long time but it still seems kind of shocking. Maybe I've been watching too much Portlandia :)

    "Another democrat city going Detroit."

    I thought that this article was about a gang-related shooting outside of a strip club? Since when did gang members vote?

    "Orale Big Sleepy. If you don't vote democrat, esé, we're kicking you outbid the barrio, homes."

    "Chalé, Puppet. I only vote conservative, eh. This vato pays too many taxes, esé."

    Is that how gang members have political discourse?

    This is sad.

    122nd is not ghetto. I pass by there and it looks OK to me.

    The deaf, dumb, and blind multitudes are the endeared of the liberals in this country. Just look at the results of their controlled areas. Wait, I forgot. Liberals don't look at results. Only their intentions count!

    ^@gatorfan: Yeah, isn't it so? There's no pride in a job efficiently done any more. Now it's just spray a hundred rounds into everyone in sight and see what happens. What, does ammunition grow on trees?
