Police have identified Yau Aaron Chan, 25, as the victim of a stabbing at a downtown Vancouver nightclub over the weekend.
The victim got into a fight with another man outside the Atlantis Night Club on Richards Street just after 2 a.m., was stabbed and later died of his injuries, said Vancouver Police Department spokeswoman Const. Jana McGuinness.
Police said they could not release any more details about the incident and would not say whether anyone had been arrested in connection with the stabbing.
Police kept Richards Street closed around the Atlantis nightclub on Sunday after an overnight stabbing left one man dead.
A witness told Global TV he saw two men physically fighting each other outside the club.
Tammy MacDonald, who lives nearby, said she woke up in the middle of the night to a chorus of sirens from emergency vehicles.
"I'm not surprised," said MacDonald, when she heard there had been a stabbing.
"It's not so much the club that's the problem but these guys outside [on the street] afterwards. It worries me. It's right in your neighbourhood."
Another resident who lives at the corner of Davie and Richards said the crowds coming out of the club are often very loud on the weekends.

i really don't understand, if you have the guts and nerve to kill a person yet you don't have the guts to go to jail? Step up and be more responsible.

as long as you're alive, you can get killed anywhere because you're good & f-ing walking around alive. with your f-ing smelly a-hole mouth, tell us a place where you're bound ...
Thank you, Alcoholic, for the way over the top performance.
Wow, so much happened in Vancouver while i was gone for almost a month TT___TT
I finally went to work after my trip, and I hear my coworkers jabbering away in the break room talking about it. This sickens me at how people come to conclusions and can be very narrow minded.

and reading comments from "readers" at http://www.canada.com/theprovinc ... a-a426-35c2d3e04a34 it angered me how many people automatically come up with conclusions: for example, once people read/hear CLUB + fight/stabbing/killing... everyone comes up to the conclusion of GANG RELATED. And especially in Vancouver, when you read/hear Asian, fight, killing or anything negative, a lot of people come to the conclusion of Gangs and Rich, spoiled Asian kids going at it again. And it's even more stupid that the Media (especially that canada.com article) is so vague that it leads many people come to that conclusion.
AC may you rest in peace.
I don't remember which Aaron... but I remember a few years back, I went to see the Talent Show at Preisdent Plaze (I think thats the name of the plaze). Was his talent was playing basketball doing tricks?

Lady, go to rinse your mouth... your mouth is very smelly.
I think she means there's no such place as "places where you might be killed"
because anywhere could be a possibility
even during daylight at a supermarket parking lot, a drunk violent guy and a possible accidental bump on the shoulder could lead to a tragedy
Its just a combination of the wrong place and the wrong time
