In February 2021, police responded to a report of a gun brandished at Wonderland. As GoLocal reported:

According to police reports, witnesses told police a “black male with braids wearing a black shirt brandished a firearm” inside the club, and that individual was “wearing glasses and pointed a firearm at another male subject.”

Following the report, police observed two male subjects matching the descriptions ending a silver Audi with Massachusetts plates, and detained the subjects.
