Did negligent security contribute to the shooting at a St. Petersburg apartment complex and are justice and compensation available to the victim?

LOCAL NEWS

Gunfire erupted at a St. Petersburg, Florida apartment complex Wednesday, May 15, 2019, leaving one person injured.  According to ABCactionNews.com, “the shooting occurred around 8:15 p.m. at the Flagler Pointe Apartments, located at 2540 Roy Hanna Way South.”  The news story reports “[p]aramedics transported one victim to a local hospital…he suffered life-threatening injuries.”  According to BayNews9.com, “[p]olice quickly locked down the scene which took up about three blocks of this community. At least four cars were hit by bullets and many bullet casings were found scattered across the wide shooting scene.”

No suspects have been identified according to the media reports.

OUR LEGAL TAKE

Apartment residents and guests have a right to feel safe and secure while on the premises. The Murray Law Firm questions the level of security provided at the apartment complex and whether this shooting may have been prevented.

  • What security measures were in place to deter crime and protect the victim at the time of the shooting?
  • Was the suspect a resident of the apartment complex?
  • How was the suspect able to gain access to the property?
  • Have there been prior incidents of violence on the property?

Generally, property owners are required to protect all those legally on the premises from any foreseeable harm. Should the facts of this matter reveal that the apartment complex owner failed to provide adequate security to protect those on its premises, the victim may seek justice and elect to pursue legal claims for his injuries. 

Based upon its prior successful experience in handling security negligence claims on behalf of victims and their families, The Murray Law Firm suggests that photographs and a thorough, unbiased inspection of the property will need to be performed immediately, before any evidence may be repaired, damaged or destroyed. Given the complexities of pursuing a negligent security case, it is imperative that the victim retain an experienced attorney who can ensure the preservation of any and all evidence that may support such a claim.

Our Legal Take

Gas station and convenience store patrons have a right to feel safe and secure while on the premises. The Murray Law Firm questions the level of security provided on the property and whether this tragedy may have been prevented.

  • What security measures, such as bright lighting, visible surveillance cameras and security patrols, were present to deter crime and protect Mr. Bailey at the time of the shooting?

OUR LEGAL TAKE

Bar patrons have a right to feel safe and secure while on the premises. The Murray Law Firm questions the level of security provided at the bar and whether this tragedy may have been prevented.

  • Have prior incidents of violence been reported on or near the property?  
  • Were security measures, such as lighting, surveillance cameras, or security personnel, in place to deter crime and protect the victim and others at the time of the shooting?
  • Does the bar have a protocol to check guests for deadly weapons prior to entering the establishment?

Generally, property owners are required to protect all those legally on the premises from any foreseeable harm. Should the facts of this matter reveal that the bar owner failed to provide adequate security to protect those on its premises, the victim may seek justice and elect to pursue legal claims for their injuries.

Based upon its prior successful experience in handling security negligence claims on behalf of victims and their families, The Murray Law Firm suggests that photographs and a thorough, unbiased inspection of the property will need to be performed immediately, before any evidence may be repaired, damaged or destroyed.
