Three men were shot and wounded early Wednesday shortly after leaving a North Miami-Dade strip club, according to troopers.
Justin Harris, 27, and his two friends had left The Office Gentlemen’s Club, 250 NE 183rd St., and were driving on to the northbound Interstate 95 ramp at Miami Gardens Drive when a white Chevrolet sedan pulled up alongside them.
Someone inside the car then began shooting into Harris’ white Honda sedan, according to the Florida Highway Patrol.
Harris and his two passengers were struck by bullets around 4 a.m. Harris and his front seat passenger were shot in the arm. The other passenger was shot in the hand.
The three were taken to Aventura Hospital with non-life-threatening injuries, according to an FHP spokesman.
Video from WSVN shows several bullet holes on the white Honda’s windshield and passenger-door window.
The I-95 on-ramp in the area was closed during the investigation. It was reopened after morning rush hour.
There have been other recent troubles related to The Office. One man died in October after a confrontation turned into a gun fight outside of the club. Three men were also shot in the club’s parking lot during a drive-by shooting in July. One of them later died at the hospital.
Anyone with information on Wednesday’s shooting is asked to call police.
Comments
This club has had multiple shooting incidents over the last few years, I would not be surprised if they got shut down - this is a small but decently appointed black club but for w/e reason it has a lot more shootings than other clubs including other small black clubs in the area - I've visited this club and it didn't strike me as any more hood than other small black clubs I visit; actually seemed less hood than other small black clubs - there's something going with this particular club and I think it may be that it may be frequented by organized crime gang members from the North Miami area - the club is down the street from Tootsies close to the I95-ramp.
