KRIV that he and some friends were attending an LGBTQ-themed event featuring drag performances on the night in question.Houston-Pickett claims he and his friends were told they’d have to wait before leaving the club.While in that holding pattern, he grabbed a bottle of alcohol from the bar and jokingly said he needed a drink for the wait. He then put the bottle down and never took a drink from it.A short while later, however, a large, well-built man who appeared to be working security at the bar approached him.“I saw an African American male…really buff with long hair coming at me with two other guys,” Houston-Pickett told KRIV.
