PROVIDENCE, R.I. (AP) – Providence has revoked the liquor license of a city nightclub where the victim of a fatal stabbing and the suspects were shortly before the crime.
The Providence Board of Licenses voted on Wednesday to revoke the liquor license of Club Seven.
Board Chairman Dylan Conley said Seven’s management was “lax to the point of nonexistent.”
Seven’s attorney, Nick Hemond, called the hearing a “charade” and he plans to appeal to the state Department of Business Regulation. He said surveillance video from the club did not show any interaction between the victim and the suspects.
Police say a group of eight men punched, stabbed and kicked 28-year-old Stephen Cabral, of North Providence, to death June 30 in the parking lot of a pharmacy near the club.
