A federal lawsuit accuses the city of Miami, two police officers, a security company, and a Wynwood nightclub of negligence and excessive force in the 2025 fatal shooting of Evelyn Valdes, an 'innocent bystander' killed during a police confrontation outside the Electric Lady nightclub. The complaint alleges officers fired without warning, failed to provide timely medical care, and that the defendants neglected safety protocols.
