Hmmmmm......... Really? Not the least bit surprised. Savages. I also find it funny that they don't mention that its a black bar, but everyone already knows it is. Try to put another mundane defense together, elitists.

Fights Escalate Outside Night Club

CLIVE, Iowa -- Clive police have been called repeatedly to at a metro bar to break up fights, and now the city is considering pulling the bar's liquor license.

Club Amnesia is located at 2249 NW 86th St. It used to be named Crush.

"It's just ridiculous. You can't believe it," said Perry Palmer, owner of the Cabaret Lounge.

Palmer's business is next door to Club Amnesia.

"It's not safe. No, I have to hire extra help to patrol," said Palmer.

Palmer has been shooting videotape of what happens outside the club, which he said shows how huge parties in the parking lot turn into violent fights.

After closing on Saturday, two men fired guns in a crowd of 15 to 20 people and across busy 86th Street toward a Dahl's Food Store.

"One of them pulled a weapon, then the other pulled one and multiple rounds were fired," said Dennis Henderson, the Clive city manager.

"One of our police cars was hit and another car struck twice," said Lt. John Brodersen, of the Clive Police Department.

Police said both men got away. They said the unruly crowd has been a problem, even for a nearby Kum n Go store.

"Verbal arguments, stealing beer, lighting things on fire, public urination in the store," said Brodersen.

Another officer was recently sprayed with pepper spray outside Club Amnesia.

City officials said they required the club to hire three off duty police officers on Saturday nights. The bar uses a metal detection wand and males are padded down before they're allowed inside the business.

Police said the situation is unsafe for them and the community.

"Yeah, I'd like to see it close," said Palmer.

The city manager is meeting with the Alcoholic Beverages Division to look into suspending the liquor license.

KCCI tried to contact the owners of Club Amnesia to comment on this story, but they did not return our phone calls on Wednesday.

i heard about this the other night. peoples court hosts First Friday (hip hop party held on the first friday of every month). after the fight that had 3rd closed from 3rd and court intersection all the way to 101, peoples is most likely going to be not renewing the lease that First Friday had signed when it is up in a month or so and emailing bar owners to not have it renewed elsewhere. that fight is 1 out of at least a dozen or so that blocked the street. everyone in the building dreads the day because it means no money in tips, ridiculous arguments and fights.

if the police dont pull the liquor license, they are doing something wrong.

friday the 2nd. a guy that we banned for wearing a GD shirt into the club and being a general nuisance ran out from peoples and punched someone. they had to bring in state troopers to help. i had to hold some guy for the police the same night over some guy not liking not being allowed entrance due to dresscode.
