Two other men were also undergoing treatment in hospital for injuries, which were not believed to be life-threatening.
A fourth person was initially believed to have suffered a gunshot injury, but it was now believed she suffered the injury when she fell during the disturbance. She was discharged from hospital.
Police said three women, aged in their 20s and 30s, and a man, aged 32, were arrested following the disturbance.
They were bailed while the investigation continues.
The club remains closed yesterday, Sunday, September 21, and police were reviewing its licensing powers.
Det Insp Racheal Allen, from the force’s Major Crime Unit, said: “We are building a clearer picture of what happened in the nightclub, and are working flat out to ensure we identify everyone who was involved.
“It’s still really important that we hear from anyone who was inside the venue, or who may have taken any pictures or video.”
