And none of this has anything to do with the location's "clientele."

Yes. You put any breastaurant in that general area and you will get the same exact result eventually.

I'm surprised we haven't heard similar stories from Ojos Locos on 45N near Crossteembers...

Seems like one could set up a business plan where this makes sense if you can get the dirtbags to pay a bit more for their booze. The trick would be timing the County/TABC crackdown when your lease expires, or put a rider into the lease agreement itself.

There's one of those just up 45 in front of what's left of Almeda Mall. I actually had them confused having them mentally combined in to one entity.

This really is pretty crazy...this is what '079 soccer moms were envisioning when Twin Peaks came into the neighborhood...


Quote:

Law enforcement has responded to numerous calls regarding shootings, assaults, aggravated robberies, narcotics, and other crimes there.

Members of gangs such as Hermanos de Pistoleros Latinos and Tango Blast, have repeatedly been arrested at the bar.

Patrons have been seen openly, as well as privately, snorting drugs, attempting to sell drugs and outright dropping packets on the floor.

The motion lists dozens of incidents of criminality going back to 2014 in which Houston Police have been dispatched.

Over and over again, Bombshells served customers who were already drunk and belligerent.

In January 2015, an off-duty officer working weekend security there, shot and killed a patron who pointed a gun at him in the parking lot.

Among the other violence, a waitress was repeatedly punched in the face by a female customer angered after being told there was a waiting list for a table. Another's boyfriend wrapped his hands around her throat and choked her.

Security guards have been punched, kicked, threatened, verbally abused and spit on, as well as had guns pointed at them.

In another instance, as police arrested a man who had been fighting with security guards, he told one of the officers, "I hope your wife dies. I hope your kids die. I hope your whole (expletive) family dies."

In February of this year, a patron said he feared being attacked in the parking lot following an argument inside the bar. As a group of men approached him, he fired two shots into the air and the group dispersed.

In May of this year, a drunk driver directly across the roadway from Bombshells crashed into a Houston Police car that was shielding another accident, and broke both of the officer's wrists.

The motorist was wearing a wrist band from Bombshells and admitted to having been there that evening. He unsuccessfully fled on foot and was captured a short distance away.

"This is not about going after responsible, law-abiding establishments," Teare said. "This is about shutting down one of the worst offenders in the county. This is about stopping mayhem and carnage."

That's the one not too far from my office. Based on my one trip there, I'll gladly keep driving south and hit Tight Ends up for a soft core porn show at lunch.

Guess that explains why the place was empty and channel 2 had a news van there on the way home today.

Pretty sure when it first opened it was in the news for kicking out a dude for having tattoos on his face. Something about not want that type of people in their establishment. That didn't last too long I guess.

Yep:

Isn't there one of those somewhere between Almeda-Genoa and Fuqua too? Someone has been doing their real estate research.

Was in the room for another matter when the restraining order forbidding them from serving alcohol was granted. Kim Ogg herself showed up because she's buddies with the judge that granted it. Sort of a chicken **** move if you ask me. But certainly not surprising they want that place shut down. It's a magnet for exactly what you think its a magnet for.

Hit up the one at Almeda Mall. I know it's safe because they have a sign that says "Gringos welcome too".

I went there one time on a Saturday night and it was packed as ****; lots of hot waitresses/bartenders, dudes hanging out and surprisingly a lot of non-working girls. It was like a loud ass club and the power to the POS system kept going out so I had to wait an extra hour to pay or get my change or something.

I had a good time.

If they were using off duty City and County cops instead of security guards, they'd be treated like all the other bars that over-serve and allow crime: keep on doing what you do and sending that tax revenue to the general fund. But since they don't pay officer overtime extortion money, they get targeted. Not much different than the strip club extortion law suit that the City's about to lose.

There were about 15 off duty cops working security when I was there a year or so back. Some were HPD, some were County and some were probably Metro or a school district from all the different unis they had on.

That Bombshells was a Chulas for a short while.

Also, this is nearby in the same shopping center as that Bayou City Wings that not to long ago had a viral video of patrons fighting, throwing chairs, etc. People are trash.
