Neighbors Say West 28th Trouble Is Normal, Unfortunately

2009_03_prombar.jpg A few more details on the early Sunday morning stabbing outside Chelsea nightclub Promenade, located on West 28th between 7th and 8th Avenues. The Daily News says that a patron who "objected to leaving at closing time...pulled a knife and began slashing." Four employees were stabbed and Abdul Taylor was arrested for attempted murder, assault, criminal mischief and criminal possession of a weapon. One neighbor told the News, "There is always noise on this street. We've had [problems] in this club before." WCBS 2 spoke to another resident, who was also frustrated, "There's always something going on, always a problem, always police coming by, being called," but the club's patrons say the club prevent such incidents, "They search you strictly. Guys get it worse than the females."
