Long Island bouncer shot.

LONG ISLAND CITY, Queens — A bouncer was shot outside a Queens strip club early Monday.

It happened outside the Show Palace Gentlemen’s Club in Long Island City around 5 a.m., police said.

Police said a man opened fire and shot the 42-year-old bouncer in the leg and shoulder, police said.

He was taken to the hospital with non-life-threatening injuries, cops said.

The alleged gunman fled before police arrived.

The circumstances leading up to the shooting were not immediately known.

In December of 2017, Queens City Councilman Jimmy Van Bramer called for the closure of the strip club, stating that there is "no place for gun violence, liquor offenses, or prostitution charges" in Long Island City.

Aw man. I was gonna head out to Queens tonight. Not there but another SC in LIC. But now who knows what LE is going to be up to and bouncers my be extra edgy. Some people just don't know how to behave. Fuck it! If I can get out of the house by 6PM I'm going.

Show Palace has been hood rat central for a long time. With that said, I agree with Papi that this isn't going to help it's cause. I also think Ghost is right that other clubs will probably be extra vigilant for the next few days.

Who knows? If this scares off some of the customers, there may be a unique opportunity to find some p4p with hungry dancers. ;)

Lol Papi. But on the flip side, passing up opportunities created by the shooting isn't going to make him any less injured, is it? ;)

You could make up for it by sending him a get well card. :D
