Wheelchair user presses protest against club
Most party people in this town have felt the pangs of rejection from being denied entry to a hip nightclub. But when bouncers told 21-year-old Michael Harris that he couldn't enter the Star nightclub with his wheelchair on New Year's Eve, they may have been breaking the law.
"They basically told me they had a policy not to admit people in wheelchairs," Harris said. "They told me that if I didn't leave they would pick me up and take me out of my wheelchair and throw me into the street."
