A bar in Louisville’s Germantown neighborhood was shut down by city officials over the weekend due to “serious violations involving underage drinking, overservice and public safety.”
Louisville Metro Alcoholic Beverage said in a news release Tuesday its detectives inspected 21st in Germantown just after midnight June 8 after a “pattern” of violations including underage drinking and the arrest of a “severely impaired” driver who had just left the bar.
When Metro ABC detectives arrived late Saturday night, they said they saw the security guard alert patrons to their presence, at which point several “apparently underage individuals” ran out the back exit. Three were detained, and Metro ABC said all were consuming alcohol at 21st in Germantown and told detectives they had come from outside Jefferson County believing the bar would give them easy access to alcohol.
Metro ABC issued an Emergency Suspension Order for 21st in Germantown, meaning the bar has to stop selling all alcohol until further notice.
