SEMINOLE COUNTY, Fla. – Lawyers representing a woman who was hurt in a shooting that hurt 10 people during a party at Cabana Live in Seminole County are set to give an update on their lawsuit against the business Friday night.
The lawsuit claims that the woman, Rakita Davis, “experienced immediate bodily injury and resulting pain and suffering” from the shooting.
The suit lists Cabana Live of Sanford LLC, Marinas LLC, Off the Muscle Entertainment LLC and two unidentified men listed as John Doe 1 and John Doe 2 all as plaintiffs.
Documents show the woman claims the plaintiffs were negligent in securing the proper permits for the event — which Seminole County Sheriff Dennis Lemma had previously said — and did not have appropriate security for the event.
According to the arrest report, two people began fighting Saturday morning when an uninvolved person, later identified as 16-year-old Christopher Bouie, turned around an opened fire.
Lemma estimates there were 200 people at the ‘Nobody Leaves Sober Pool Party’ on Saturday and said there were 10 armed security guards there.
The news conference is set for 8 p.m. News 6 will stream it in the media player at the top of this story when it happens.
