Fight at Latino Night Club Turns into a Homicide

You Tube

A chance meeting by two rival gangs ends in another Tulsa homicide; the 23rd this year. The incident unfolded in far east Tulsa at the Club Imperi0, also known as the Imperio Event Center,  early Sunday morning. A fight started inside the club at 142th East and 21st Street, near the old Eastland Mall.  Club security broke-up the fight, however the fight rekindled in the parking lot.

The father of one of the suspected gang members was stabbed in the parking lot. Fire fighters worked to save the man, but their efforts failed. He was stabbed one time in the chest.
