Kansas City, Mo. ? The company behind a weekend party that ended in the shooting deaths of two college students could face fines and other penalties because it didn’t have permits to hold the event, city officials said.

Nine other men, two of whom are still in hospitals in serious condition, also were injured in the early morning shooting. A 10th victim was shot after the party while on a highway.

Police have not made any arrests in the case.

Judy Hadley, the city’s manager of regulated industries, said party organizer Monarch Entertainment didn’t have the required liquor or catering license to serve alcohol and require a cover charge. She said the company also should have obtained a dance hall license because the event included dancing and charged a cover.

Hadley said she is waiting for police to complete their investigation before finishing her own. She said she could write tickets for the violations with punishment for each offense ranging up to $500 in fines and 30 days in jail.

Bobby Logan, a co-owner of Monarch who organized the party, said he didn’t know about the extra permits, figuring he got what he needed when he received a city business license. He said a Knights of Columbus official, from whom Logan rented the hall for the event, told him he could serve alcoholic drinks and take donations but could not charge for them.

Logan said his contract didn’t require security guards but that he hired a single guard to check people coming into the party and two or three of his friends kept an eye on things in the building. About 200 people attended the event.

Police said Sunday’s shooting occurred just after 1 a.m. near the Knights of Columbus hall in south Kansas City. Logan and police said the shooting happened after the party.

Investigators have said the shootings involved several gunmen drawn into a fist fight in a nearby parking lot.

The gunfire hit and killed Nathan Buie and DeMarco Harvey, both 20, Funerals for the two students are scheduled for Saturday.

The party was the second that Logan’s group has organized this summer. A third party was scheduled this weekend in Overland Park, Kan., but owners of the event’s venue pulled the plug after the shooting.

The Hickman Mills School District told The Kansas City Star that it canceled a party Monarch planned for June because it was concerned about security.

“Certainly we feel like we made the correct call,” said John B. McEntee, the district’s director of safety and security.

McEntee said Monarch received approval from the school district for a party the organizers said was for graduates. McEntee became concerned, however, because he saw fliers for the party inviting graduates from across the city and because organizers didn’t seem to know how to get liability insurance, which the district requires.
