West Midlands Police have voiced serious concerns regarding Oxygene, a club located on Queen Street in Wolverhampton, after a stabbing incident occurred on March 8. Police stated they have lost confidence in owner Alex Osiagor's ability to manage the venue safely, particularly following a series of safety violations. The police have requested the City of Wolverhampton Council to review the club's license, which could result in reduced opening hours and a suspension until safety issues are addressed. The club reportedly failed to implement necessary security measures, such as conducting ID checks and limiting entry after 3am, which contributed to a chaotic scene outside the venue where over 400 youths gathered. This situation escalated into a fight, prompting police intervention. The council's licensing committee is scheduled to meet on June 11 to make a decision regarding Oxygene's operational status, with police emphasizing that future under-18 events at the club would be considered high-risk due to safety concerns.
