Nightclub patrons have a right to feel safe and secure while on the premises they are visiting. The level of security provided at the nightclub is of significance, and is a relevant consideration when analyzing whether this shooting may have been prevented. The following questions are also important in assessing whether this incident may have been avoided:

Have prior incidents of violence been reported on or near the property?
Was there any suspicious activity or suspicious people on the property prior to the shooting.
Does the nightclub have a protocol to check for deadly weapons prior to patrons entering the establishment.
What security measures, such as bright lighting, visible surveillance cameras, and security personnel, were in place to deter crime and protect the victim at the time of the shooting?

Property owners and managers are generally required to protect against foreseeable harm to anyone and everyone legally on the premises. Should the investigation into this incident reveal facts that establish that the nightclub owner or management lacked adequate security to protect its visitors, or engaged in the negligent retention of its security personnel, the family of Samuel Wires may seek justice and elect to pursue legal claims and substantial compensation for their loss.

The Murray Law Firm has extensive and successful experience in handling security negligence claims on behalf of victims and their families, and suggests that an immediate, unbiased inspection and investigation will need to be performed so as to limit evidence from being altered, damaged or destroyed.

Local News

Gunfire rang out at a Grantville, California parking lot early Sunday morning, September 12, 2021, leaving one man dead.

As reported by Fox5SanDiego.com, “[t]he shooting happened at about 1 a.m. Sunday outside the business on Mission Gorge Road in Grantville…[w]hen officers from Eastern Division arrived on scene, they found a male down in a parking lot with at least one apparent gunshot wound to his upper body.”

According to the report, “San Diego Fire-Rescue personnel rushed the man to a hospital, where he underwent surgery, but he was not expected to survive his injuries.”

SanDiegoUnionTribune.com is reporting, “Police on Monday [Sept 13] were notified that [the man] had died.”

Per the report, the man was identified as “La Mesa resident Jason Twyman.”

The investigation is ongoing.

Our Legal Take

FORMER CLIENT: I had lawyers calling me, and friends telling me who I should hire…I trusted in The Murray Law Firm and I’m glad I did.

Parking lot patrons have a right to feel safe and secure while on the premises they are visiting. The level of security provided at the property is of significance, and is a relevant consideration when analyzing whether this shooting may have been prevented. The following questions are also important in assessing whether this incident may have been avoided:

Have prior incidents of violence been reported on or near the property?
What security measures, such as bright lighting, visible surveillance cameras, and security personnel, were in place to deter crime and protect the victim at the time of the shooting?
Was the property owner or management aware of any suspicious activity prior to the shooting?

Property owners are generally required to protect against foreseeable harm to anyone and everyone legally on the premises. Should the investigation into this incident reveal facts that establish that the property owner or management lacked adequate security to protect its visitors, the family of Jason Twyman may seek justice and elect to pursue legal claims and substantial compensation for their loss.
