In 2008, former New York Giants wide receiver Plaxico Burress shot himself at the Midtown nightclub LQ (or Latin Quarters). Early this morning, police allege that another shooting occurred at the club, as a man was reportedly shot in the stomach during an argument over a woman. NBC New York says that the incident happened around 3 a.m. this morning, and that the weapon, which was "stolen from Virginia in 2008," was recovered at the scene. 

The victim was reportedly taken to Bellevue Hospital with a gunshot wound to the abdomen. He is expected to survive. No information about the shooter was released, and the NYPD says the investigation will continue.
