Friday Headlines: Committee Recommends Coin’s Revocation; Murder Suspect Found Dead; Man Dies in Industrial Accident

KENOSHA, WI (WLIP)–The Kenosha License and Permit Committee has voted to recommend revocation of Coins Sports Bar’s license.

The move comes after several hours of testimony during two special meetings held last week and Thursday night.

The recommendation was made on a 4-1 vote.

The issue goes before the full Common Council as soon as early next month where a final decision could be made.

The bar does have security inside and outside but said that they should not be responsible for what happens once patrons leave the bar.
