TMZ has obtained security footage of the Mike Epps nightclub fight … which DOES show the comic charging after another man … but DOES NOT show anyone firing a gun.
We broke the story … the LAPD responded to a Hollywood club Monday night after someone called cops to report a shot fired inside the venue, following a scuffle between Mike and another man.
Sources tell TMZ … before the fight, Mike had been “heckled” by a man who was hanging around Mike’s private VIP table that night … and Mike decided to go outside in an effort to cool off.
But as Mike got close to the front door, he and the heckler crossed paths … and the video shows Mike rushing after the man in anger. The camera rolled as drinks start to fly … and security scrambled to take control of the situation.
Moments after the skirmish, Mike can be seen with his private security team inside the club … while the rest of the clubgoers continue to dance, unfazed by the melee.
Cops responded to the scene a short time later — and the club was cleared out due to the report of a gunshot. But sources tell us, a search of the premises did NOT turn up a shell casing or a bullet hole. No arrests were made.
According to sources, the party was a private event — unaffiliated with the club at large — and Epps’ team personally managed the guest list.
We reached out to Epps for comment — so far, no word back.
