One person injured in the shooting ran around the corner into Chapel Street.
Police are yet to talk to the victims in full detail due to their injuries. They are still confirming whether the person found on Chapel Street was one of the four injured or if there is a fifth person who was shot.
Blood could be seen on the footpath more than 100 metres from the nightclub. Clothes and bullet casings were also scattered on the ground.
Homicide Detective Inspector Andy Stamper said it was too early to say whether it was a targeted or random shooting. No arrests have been made.
Chapel Street is home to a number of popular nightclubs and the shooting on Sunday occurred while many people were still out.
