The club was said to have been evacuated with nearby roads sealed off and several partygoers detained for questioning.

In the moments after the shots were fired, host Brown was said to have climbed onto what looked like a bar in the nightclub, and “apparently angrily remonstrating with other clubgoers as a bouncer told partygoers to 'Get down’”, reports the Mail.
