Gas Station and convenience store 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 there been prior incidents of violence on or near the property?
What security measures, such as monitored surveillance cameras, clear windows, and visible security personnel, were in place to deter crime and protect the victim at the time of the shooting?
Was there any suspicious people or activity on the property 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 Lindsey P. Shook 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 of the property will need to be performed so as to limit evidence from being altered, damaged or destroyed. The complexities of pursuing a negligent security case are well understood by the legal team at The Murray Law Firm, and it is imperative that the family of Lindsey P.

LOCAL NEWS

Gunfire erupted at an Orlando, Florida event center Saturday night, September 11, 2021, leaving one man dead and one other person injured.

As reported by WFTV.com, “the shooting occurred around 10:30 p.m. on Saturday at [an event center] on Primrose Drive.”

According to the report, “when [police] arrived an adult male was found dead from an apparent gunshot wound. Another person was transported to the hospital with a non-life-threatening gunshot wound.”

WESH.com is reporting, “the club had been rented out for a private party Saturday night, and the shooting occurred after people tried to crash the party and were asked to leave.”

According to ClickOrlando.com, “Orlando police have confirmed the identity of the victim as 49-year-old Rajah Graham, of Jacksonville.”

The investigating is ongoing.

OUR LEGAL TAKE

Guests and patrons of event centers have a right to feel safe and secure while on the premises. 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:

What security measures were in place to deter crime and protect the victim at the time of the shooting?
Have there been prior incidents of violence on the property, and, if so, were any security measures added after any prior incidents?
Was the property aware of any suspicious activity or suspicious people on property 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 residents and visitors, the family of Rajah Graham may seek justice and elect to pursue legal claims and substantial compensation for their loss. In addition, any injured victim may seek justice and elect to pursue legal claims and substantial compensation for their injuries.
