Nightclub brawl leads to stabbing investigation

In a recent government meeting, Officer Trejo presented a report detailing an incident that occurred on June 10, 2020, at Xavier's nightclub located at 245 Warrant Street. The officer was dispatched for a well-being check following reports of a fight at the venue. Upon arrival, he found that the altercation had already concluded, and the scene was cleared without further disturbance.

Approximately 20 minutes later, Officer Trejo was called to LGH, where he encountered a male victim, identified as Aybaugh, who had sustained a stab wound to his left thigh. The victim, who appeared to be under the influence of alcohol, reported that he was not involved in the fight but was injured when a crowd rushed out of the nightclub. He recalled feeling a bump and subsequently realizing he had been stabbed, prompting him to call for help.

The officer noted that the victim's condition did not seem to alarm him, despite the severity of his injury. Trejo also mentioned that there were no prior calls from Xavier's regarding the fight, only the initial well-being check. He indicated that he would be following up with detectives for further investigation into the incident.

During the meeting, Commissioner Nate sought clarification from the attorney representing Xavier's, Brian Cardena, who was present alongside the nightclub's owner, Louis Dugal. The discussions highlighted the need for further inquiry into the circumstances surrounding the fight and the nightclub's response to the incident.
