Suspect charged in club shooting
Bouncer is killed, suspect in hospital

A Sunday morning shootout at a strip club began with a warning to drive slower. It ended more than 40 bullets later with a bouncer's death.
Randall Webber, 34, of Atlanta was killed outside the Crystal Palace. Police were seeking a felony murder warrant for a man hospitalized with two bullet wounds. Investigators had not released his name Sunday evening.
The parking lot of the club at 502 Connell Avenue S.W. was littered with shell casings. Seven vehicles were pierced by bullets. Police Sgt. Keith Meadows said the 10 to 15 witnesses were fortunate to escape injury.
Meadows said business at the 24-hour night club had slowed when a two-door white Oldsmobile drove in and parked near the club's front door before 10 a.m. Two club bouncers told the driver and the passenger not to speed through the parking lot, he said. The passenger got out of the car and began to fight with Webber, then pulled a handgun and shot Webber once in the chest. Webber then opened fire, as did two other bouncers in the parking lot, police said.
Webber died on the way to Grady Memorial Hospital.
The other man was shot in the chest and shoulder. He ran, losing a shoe in the parking lot, and tossed a handgun police recovered in a nearby grassy area. Police tracked him to South Fulton Medical Center.
"How he got there, I don't know,'' Meadows said.
The Oldsmobile driver showed up Sunday afternoon at Atlanta police headquarters and has been cooperative, he added. Investigators don't anticipate charging him.
Whether the bouncers had permits for their handguns is still being investigated, Meadows said.
"I guarantee it was legal," club attorney Steven M. Youngelson said.
The floor men at the club are not required to carry guns, he said. "I instruct my folks to talk, talk, talk, restrain, call the police and prosecute," Youngelson said. "But if somebody fires a gun, I guess you've got to do what's necessary."
In 1997 at the same club, bouncers exchanged gunfire with two men who had been evicted from the club. One patron was killed, and two bouncers were wounded.
Tearful dancers and a handful of patrons who lingered by the club's door Sunday declined to talk. The club closed Sunday afternoon.
