In the summer of 2008, the city of Fayetteville sued to take possession of the Palomino Night Club. The lawsuit stated that the club created an atmosphere that encouraged drug dealing, assaults and shootings.

In January 2007, Aljandro Martinez, 19, of Fayetteville, was stabbed to death outside the club, which was then called The Palomino/South Beach Club. Police arrested Jacob Nolasco, 24, of Fayetteville, but believe that at least one more person was involved in the stabbing death.

On April 24, a shooting in the club's parking lot injured Kendrick Johnson, 19, of Fayetteville.
