First it was shooting up buses, now strip clubs...I fully expect someone to do a drive-by from the El before the year is out.

Police in Philadelphia are hoping that video of a man shooting up a strip club with an AK-47 assault rifle over a DJ’s song selection will lead to his arrest.

Investigators on Wednesday said that 21-year-old Henry Pettigrew was being sought for the May 11th shooting at Purple Orchid Gentleman’s Club.

Police said that bouncers at the club tried to remove him after he became angry because the DJ would not play his favorite song.

Pettigrew and an accomplice then assaulted a customer, who they mistook for one of the bouncers. When the customer ran to the parking lot and tried to flee in his SUV, Pettigrew grabbed an AK-47 and began firing at the vehicle. The customer was hit above his right hip and was expect to recover.

“Fortunately where it hit him, it hit the flesh of his body and it didn’t hit any vital organs,”

Philadelphia Police Department spokesperson Lt. Johnny Walker explained, according to WPVI.

The video then showed Pettigrew falling — apparently due to intoxication — as he tried to run back inside the strip club. The suspect fired several rounds in the direction of the DJ. The DJ could be seen ducking for cover as a bullet struck the mirror behind where his head had been.

“Just wildly, obviously with an AK-47 with a banana clip, it can fire multiple rounds at a high rate of speed very quickly,” Walker observed.

Pettigrew was described as a 5’11″ tall black male, who weighs about 180 pounds and has a thin beard. His accomplice was also a black male, thought to be between 20 and 25 years old and about 5’10″.

Anyone with information was urged to call Philadelphia Police at 215-686-TIPS (8477). Tips can be sent via SMS text to PPD TIP (773847) or through PhillyPolice.com.

[blakep267]

That's a strip club in one of the grimiest parts in the city. You can't say that's indicative of the entire city

Definitely. Ever since that incident last year where dude got kicked out of a bar for smoking, came back strapped and killed 9 people (but not the one that kicked him out), I've been mostly keeping my black buns in the crib.

The incongruity of that never even crossed my mind, but that's an excellent point.

Real talk i stopped going out to the hood spots a long time ago. When i was single with no kids and young I didn't give a **** but as I got older I started to realize the amount of times I got into it with people really stood out to me.

The cold thing about it, is some dudes really just head out the house expecting to beef. They actively look to start some ****. You can see them in the club or bar just eyeballing everybody crazy. Waiting for someone to bump by or look at them funny. **** is corny and depressing.

A friend of mine was killed some months back by a 19 year old, my boy was 30. The kid was poppin off crazy and when he tried to test my homie, my man checked him and went about his night. The kid came back later on him and pulled out a pistol and shot him dead in the club. It ****** me terrible cause I can't even understand how he even ended up rolling in the dirt with this kid. Crazy part of about it, the club wasn't even a hood spot.

That's a terrible story, but that guy should have left the club
