A bouncer is in hospital after a drive-by shooting at a South Melbourne strip club early this morning.
Two security guards and at least four patrons were standing outside Kittens strip club at around 2am when shotgun blasts rang out from a passing car.
The injured man was struck in the upper-arm by shotgun pellets and was taken to the Alfred Hospital, however police said he is not co-operating with their investigation.
Detectives believe the security guard, aged in his 20s, was saved from more serious injuries due to a tree blocking most of the blast.
A stolen Holden Commodore is believed to have been involved in the shooting and was found dumped and burnt-out nearby in Port Melbourne.
Anyone with information about the drive-by shooting is urged to contact Crime Stoppers on 1800 333 000.
