Two Shot Outside Cora’s Social Club In Greenville
The Greenville County Sheriff’s Office is investigating a shooting that took place just outside Cora’s Social Club in the early hours of Saturday morning. Deputies say three shots were fired outside the South Washington Avenue nightclub and two individuals sustained gunshot wounds.
The shooter remains at large. News Channel 7 reports that “more detailed information about a suspect or suspects” will not be released until further investigation has been conducted by deputies.
The two people with injuries are expected to recover.
On New Year’s Day, we reported a shooting at Cora’s Social Club in which three individuals sustained gunshot wounds. Much like Club Roka on South Pleasantburg Drive, Cora’s seems to attract thugs with itchy trigger fingers.
I’m not a fan of early morning trips to the ER (or possibly the Coroner’s Office), so I’ll be sticking to Wal-Mart and the Mickey Dee’s drive-thru for my late night entertainment needs.
Three Wounded in Shooting Outside Cora’s Social Club
Three men sustained non-life threatening gunshot wounds outside Cora’s Social Club just before 5 a.m. New Year’s Day. The shooting occurred following a fight inside the S. Washington Avenue club, Greenville County deputies said.
Deputies had gotten a call just prior to the shooting that there was a fight inside the club.
All three victims ended up at Greenville Hospital. Two drove themselves, one was driven by a friend.
The Sheriff’s Office says all three victims told investigators they did not know each other, nor the shooter. Deputies say one victim told them the shooter was a “young, light skinned black male who had been thrown out of the club just prior to the incident.“
The three victims were treated for the following injuries:
A 21-year-old man was wounded in his left thigh and right ankle. A 25-year-old man was wounded in his left knee. A 27-year-old man was wounded in his right thigh and left ring finer.
Witnesses were unhelpful in providing a more detailed description of the shooter.
