Luxor Bar and Lounge, Waterloo issued with
closure order
LUXOR Bar and Lounge, located on South
Road, Waterloo has been issued with a 2 month closure order following an
investigation into drug use and violent incidents at the premises. On Thursday,
30 March 2017, Sefton Magistrates Court granted the closure order, which means
it must remain closed until midday, on 30 May 2017.
Community Sergeant Kate Young said:- "Following an investigation by our
Officers, we believe that this bar was linked to incidents of drug use and
violence. Waterloo is a safe and welcoming place to live and visit and we feel
that local residents and visitors deserve venues that can be enjoyed safely.
We're committed to keeping our communities safe and that means access to local
amenities where the residents can enjoy themselves in a safe environment. I'm
sure everyone would agree that this community shouldn't have to live with this
type of criminality happening on their doorstep. We are now working with the
management of the bar who share our determination to ensure such incidents do
not happen there again." |
