Case Story |
|
| |
Strip Club Shootout |
|
| |
Police say it was just after 8:30pm on January 4, 2006 when things started to go awry at a gentleman's club in the Los Angeles suburb of Pomona, California. Two men began fraternizing with one of the dancers trying to convince her to join them at their table. When she explained that it was against club policy, the two men became belligerent with the dancer and club security asked them to leave.
While the two men left the premises and got into their 1995 Chevrolet Blazer, they weren't through with the club manager and security guards standing out front. Police say that the passenger returned on foot, produced a 9mm semi-automatic handgun and started firing at the men. They ran inside for cover and after a moment peeked outside the door to see if the coast was clear. It wasn't -- the man opened fire again before fleeing to the waiting SUV.
Police tell AMW that while only property damage was sustained in the shootout, it would only be a matter of minutes before someone would be hurt at a nearby gas station. |

Murder Caught On Tape |
|
| |
Ten minutes later and a few miles away from the gentleman's club, 24-year-old Andre Laurent and a few of his friends had stopped at a south Pomona gas station. Police say moments later, the two unknown attackers in the Chevy Blazer pulled in to the station.
Cops tell AMW that one of Andre's friends, Brendan Holt, thought the passenger in the Blazer looked like his older brother from afar. Holt squinted at the car trying to get a better look at the men inside. Deciding it was not his brother after all, he returned his attention to his friends. Police believe that's when the men in the Blazer drove over to the group and asked if Holt had a staring problem. When Holt replied that he didn't, the passenger opened fire, shooting Andre Laurent at point blank range.
The men in the Blazer sped off, fleeing down a nearby freeway. Andre Laurent died a short time later at a neighboring hospital. Luckily, police were able to acquire surveillance video from the gas station security cameras. The video shows the 9 second exchange between the shooter and Andre Laurent. Cops say that Laurent never appears confrontational.
Authorities believe that the shooter is a male Hispanic in his late teens to early twenties. They say that from the video, he appears to be fairly short with a slender build. His hair is very short or perhaps shaved and was wearing a light colored long sleeved shirt or sweatshirt. Police say that the driver is believed to also be a male Hispanic in his early to mid-twenties, slightly taller than the shooter, and has a medium build. He was wearing a baseball cap at the time of the incident.
Police also hope to identify the suspects by their 1995 Chevy Blazer. The biggest clue cops have in regards to the vehicle was the color, a 'brilliant blue' color that was only in limited production for a limited time. Less than 12,000 Blazers with that color were made worldwide.
Cops are asking for the public's assistance in identifying either of the two men or their vehicle. |
