According to the December 10, 2004 edition of The Columbus Dispatch, on January 25, 2004, two special duty Columbus, Ohio police officers heard shots fired in a parking lot across the street from The Alrosa Villa. On January 1, 2003, a fight inside the club spilled into the parking lot and shots were fired. Four people were wounded.
[edit] Area surrounding Alrosa
I meant to tone down the original "sometines called one of the more dangerous neighborhoods in the country". I put it in the original article as a placeholder but neglected to revise it. A thousand apologies! However, I do believe the reference is valid -- if I can dig it up, I'll post a link. Even with a reference, I didn't intend to use it in the final text because I have my doubts -- however, the immediate area is crime ridden and has had plenty of shootings, including other multiple murders. The general neighborhood has also been the site of several recent terrorist-related investigations (for whatever that's worth), including the guy who was arrested within the past year for plotting to blow up a suburban Columbus mall.
