Police investigating shooting at after-hours nightclub in Binghamton
BINGHAMTON, N.Y. (WIVT/WBGH) – A Binghamton man is facing felony charges after shots were fired at an alleged illegal after-hours bottle service club on the Southside.
On April 4, at approximately 3:30 a.m., members of the Binghamton Police Department Patrol Division were dispatched to 8 Broome Street for a report of shots fired.
Upon arrival, officers located a spent shell casing outside of the location. Officers also reported finding evidence of an illegal after-hours bottle service club being operated inside of the property.
During the investigation, it was determined that a male exited 8 Broome Street and allegedly discharged a firearm at a group of individuals. The suspect was identified as 25-year-old Mirso Fafulovic.
Fafulovic was charged with the following:
Criminal Possession of a Weapon in the Second Degree, a Class C Felony
Reckless Endangerment in the First Degree, a Class D Felony
Binghamton Police Detectives furthered the investigation into the illegal after-hours bottle service club. According to detectives, additional evidence was found after a search warrant was executed on the building.
In April 2024, Mayor Jared Kraham issued a lockdown warning letter to the property owner after an increase in police activity. According to Kraham, there had been nearly 70 police calls to 8 Broome Street in six months. In the letter, Kraham stated that the property may be deemed a public nuisance under the City's Property and Building Nuisance Reform Law, commonly known as the 'lockdown law.'

Following the issuing of the letter, owner of 8 Broome Street Steven Krauss gave a statement to News 34 regarding the lockdown threat. Krauss told News 34 that he was not operating an afterhours club, and that the situation was a big misunderstanding. Krauss said what may appear to be a bar in the building was more of a man cave space for employees and their friends to hang out.
Additional arrests are expected to be made.
The investigation remains ongoing. Anyone with information is encouraged to contact the Binghamton Police Detective Bureau at (607)772-7080.
