INDIANAPOLIS — Gun fire ringing out outside a southeast side strip club on three separate occasions in the last 30 days, has neighbors calling for change.

“I have to lay on top of him if we are here because every night on Thursday nights its gun shots,” Desiree McCormack, told WRTV.

McCormack lives across the street from Club Paradise. Police reports show that IMPD has responded to Club Paradise three times in the last 30 days for a person shot.

 “Close it down – it’s not fair to the people who live across the street,” One neighbor told WRTV. Mathew Gallagher even says a bullet came through his living room window following a shooting on April 10th.
