Security measures are under scrutiny after a young father, 25-year-old Damien Michael Young, was shot and killed at a Spartanburg sports bar Saturday morning, November 10, 2018.

According to 7 News, gunfire erupted “at Gravy’s Grill on Kensington Drive around 1 a.m.” Three people were transported to the hospital, where Mr. Young tragically succumbed to fatal injuries. The conditions and identities of the other two victims have not been released.

Sadly, FOX Carolina reports, Mr. Young leaves behind a 4-day-old son.

Our Legal Take

Bar and parking lot 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.

  • Have there been prior incidents of violence on or near property?
  • What security measures, such as weapons screenings, bright parking lot lighting, clear sight lines, surveillance cameras, and security patrols, were in place to deter crime and protect Mr. Young and the other two victims at the time of the shooting?

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 nightclub owners failed to provide adequate security to protect those on its premises, the family of Damien Michael Young may seek justice and elect to pursue legal claims for their loss. Additionally, the two survivors of this shooting may 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. Given the complexities of pursuing a negligent security case, it is imperative that the victim’s family retain an experienced attorney who can ensure the preservation of any and all evidence that may support such a claim.
