INDIANAPOLIS (WISH) — At least two people were shot Sunday morning at a strip club on Indy’s south side.

Officers from the Indianapolis Metropolitan Police Department were called just before 5 a.m. to Club Onyx at 4444 S. Harding Street. That’s just north of Interstate I-465 and south of West Hanna Avenue.

Shortly before the shooting, club staff started moving people out of the building, IMPD tells News 8.

One person inside the club started shooting a gun, according to IMPD. Police believe a security guard shot the shooter.

The shooter is in stable condition at a hospital, IMPD says.

A second person involved was shot in the foot. That shooter has not been identified, police say.

IMPD says it is not sure why people were being moved out of the club. The department also says there have been complaints recently about people staying at the club after closing.

Police are still looking into what happened and have not identified the victims or any possible suspects.

    This club is the former Classy Chassy. It was one of three clubs, the other two being Harem House and Babes, that were owned by the same person. All three were poorly run for years and then the Covid lockdowns came along. They were unable to survive the lockdowns and then sold. Harem House became Jaguars and Babes became Jiggles.

    When it was Classy Chassy, I went there sometimes but have not been down there since it changed owners. What little I have heard about it is that it is now a black club. Many of the clubs here, both black and nonblack clubs, have become increasingly unsafe in recent years. Popular culture now presents celebrities who think violence is the answer to personal slights, such as seen at the Oscars last night, to young people as role models to emulate.

    Doc - thanks for the info. I lived in Indy way back and used go visit frequently when I had family there. But never heard of the club.
