A Dallas woman was shot and killed by a nightclub security guard on Saturday morning. The victim, identified as Shalanda Anderson, 32, was shot outside of XTC Cabaret at 5 am. The incident began after Anderson started to drive her car in the wrong direction.
This caught the attention of the security guards, who attempted to stop her. She then drove her car into the group of security guards, and one guard responded by firing at the 32 year-old after being pinned between Anderson’s car and another vehicle, according to KDFW.
Anderson, a mother of three children, was later taken to the hospital, where she died from injuries sustained in the shooting. The 26-year-old security officer who shot into Anderson’s car was taken to the hospital after suffering multiple broken bones. She is expected to undergo surgery.
XTC Cabaret released a statement expressing sympathy to the victim’s family.

The nightclub shooting comes on the heels of a court order to temporarily postpone a city ordinance that limited sexually-oriented business hours.
