Joshua Washington, who was an innocent bystander, sustained gunshot wounds to his right side, narrowly missing his colon. He currently resides in Georgia.
Attorneys representing Joshua Washington, one of the individuals wounded in the November shooting that claimed the life of Grammy-nominated rapper Takeoff, have filed aagainst 810 Houston, its owners, and property managers. The lawsuit alleges that the venue and its organizers failed to provide sufficient security, screening measures, or emergency assistance both before and after the tragic shooting that resulted in the death of Takeoff and injuries to three others, including Washington.
"810 Houston was warned that they needed extra security. They knew it was a hotspot for violent crime and that an after-hours event like this could turn deadly in a second. But they ignored those warnings and now they have blood on their hands," stated Sellers. "This shooting was a tragedy. But it was a preventable tragedy."
"They had no properly trained security personnel, adequate signage, lighting, or cameras. They had no screening to keep out weapons. They didn't even have a working metal detector," explained Jones. "This was a powder keg of their own making, and individuals like Takeoff and Joshua Washington got caught in the explosion."FOX 26 Reporter Sherman Desselle has more after one nurse, who heard the shots, said she tried to do everything she could to save Takeoff's life.
