Security guards skipped pat-downs in Decades nightclub shooting: report
WASHINGTON - New details have emerged regarding the shooting at a Dupont Circle nightclub that injured a bride-to-be and several other people.
A report by D.C. police and the Alcoholic Beverage and Cannabis Board states surveillance video shows security guards not properly patting people down or using metal detector wands because they hadn't been charged.
Rennwel Mantock, 29, of Hyattsville, is accused of opening fire and hitting six people, including the bachelorette, after he was removed from the club on Friday, April 26.
