SPRINGFIELD, Mo. — A woman is in critical but stable condition after being shot outside Club Rodeo, a popular nightclub in west Springfield, according to police.
Mariah Strickland, who was at the club Saturday night, said she was getting ready to leave when the shooting began.
“We had just left the gates, and my friend knows a lot of the security and the bouncers,” Strickland said. “She had turned around to talk to [an employee], and I was just kind of in my own world, and that’s when I heard at least two shots. I kind of froze. I looked at my friend and she turned around and looked at the bouncer and said, ‘Were those gunshots?’ and the bouncer looked at us and said, ‘Get inside immediately.’”…
