Shots Fired -- Who Wants to Kill Kathy Griffin?!

Posted Jun 15th 2007 10:11AM by TMZ Staff

Gunshots rang out in front of one of the most celeb-packed hotspots in Hollywood last night, leaving one man bleeding from a bullet wound and shattered concrete -- littering the entrance where stars like Britney Spears, Paris Hilton and Lindsay Lohan often check in.

A short while after our cameras caught Kathy Griffin walking out of Teddys at the Roosevelt Hotel on Hollywood Blvd., someone inside a passing vehicle opened fire toward the club. As the panicked crowd ducked for cover, the lead continued to fly. On this video, a bullet can be heard whizzing past our cameraman's head as he continues to roll. At least one person was injured after he was struck by debris on the side of his stomach. Other bullets connected with the front entrance, where several chunks of concrete were blasted out of the walls.

The LAPD is currently investigating the incident. So far, no arrests have been made.

15. Why is it assumed the bullets were meant for Kathy Griffin? Now we know she will milk every ounce out of this one...being the drama queen that she is!

Don't worry Kathy, it was probably just Lindsay Lohan. She heard about the coke whore comment you made about her and snuck out of rehab to take a shot at you! But then again it could be just about anyone in Hollywood with what comes out of
your mouth!
