Niherson Gustave Shot in Delray Beach Parking Lot
Local News
23-year-old Niherson Gustave was reportedly shot in the parking lot of Excell Restaurant & Bar in Delray Beach Thursday morning, December 29, 2016.
According to The Palm Beach Post, Mr. Gustave “was shot outside of the Excell nightclub at 1041 South Congress Ave. after 2 a.m.” The parking lot shooting apparently stemmed from an argument between two groups inside the club and escalated into gunfire after Mr. Gustave and several others were “ejected” from the nightclub.

Our Legal Take
Nightclub and parking lot patrons have a right to feel safe and secure while on the premises. The Murray Law Firm questions the level of security provided in the nightclub parking lot and whether this tragedy may have been prevented.
- What parking lot security measures, such as bright lighting, security patrols and surveillance cameras, were in place to deter crime at the time of the shooting?
- Were any efforts made by the bar owner or management to safely and separately remove all those involved in the initial altercation from the property, prior to the escalation to violence? Were police called at the start of the initial dispute?
Generally, property owners are required to protect all patrons legally on the premises from any foreseeable harm. Should the facts of this matter reveal that the owner or management of the parking lot failed to provide adequate security to protect those on its premises, the family of Mr. Gustave may seek justice and elect to pursue legal claims for his wrongful death.
Based upon its prior successful experience in handling security negligence claims on behalf of victims and their families, The Murray Law Firm suggests that photographs and a thorough, unbiased inspection of the property will need to be performed immediately, before any evidence may be repaired, damaged or destroyed. Given the complexities of pursuing a negligent security case, it is imperative that the victim’s family retain an experienced attorney who can ensure the preservation of any and all evidence that may support such a claim.
