Noelle Friel, Reporter
\nSOUTHFIELD, Mich. \u2013 A security guard who shot and killed a woman outside a Southfield bar will not face charges.<\/p>\n

Investigators said a woman pulled a gun on the security guard outside of Bloom Southfield after an earlier fight involving her sister and brother-in-law.<\/p>\n

The guard fired six shots, killing 33-year-old Alexandra Fields and accidentally hitting another person in the leg.<\/p>\n

Prosecutors ruled the shooting was justified as the guard acted in self-defense.<\/p>\n

\u201cThis remains a tragic incident that resulted in the loss of life and injury to another individual. We recognize the impact this has had on families involved and on our community,\u201d said Southfield police Chief Elvin Barren.<\/p>\n

Police said they will now work with the bar to improve security, including better lighting and cameras.<\/p>\n

Officials said the armed security guard was trying to provide aid to a woman who was injured in the fight when Fields approached with a wrench and then a gun.<\/p>\n

\u201cAccording to witnesses, she then raised the handgun toward her chest, and she was approximately one to two feet away from the security guard,\u201d Barren said. \u201dThe security guard discharged his firearm, firing multiple rounds and striking the decedent six times.\u201d<\/p>\n

Bar owner Kenny Valentino said aside from contracting armed security, the bar also wands down customers to ensure no weapons are allowed inside.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe security was out there, and they were actively trying to dismantle the situation, so it didn\u2019t escalate, unfortunately they weren\u2019t successful in that,\u201d Valentino said.<\/p>\n

The incident has sparked safety concerns from residents of the nearby Chateau Villa Condominiums.<\/p>\n

In response, Valentino plans to meet with the condo association and implement new safety measures, including additional signage and a parking lot attendant to prevent customers from using the complex\u2019s visitor parking area.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

I don’t suppose a clientele upgrade is a measure under consideration.<\/p>\n

The more corrupt the state, the more numerous the laws.
