SPRINGFIELD The city’s License Commission has revoked the liquor license of the Malecon Restaurant & Bar at the Apremont Triangle in the wake of Christmas night shooting.
The incident was compared by a city lawyer to the infamous gunfight at the O.K. Corral in Arizona in 1881.
Malecon’s lawyer, Daniel Hagan of Springfield, said Thursday that the 3-0 vote to revoke the license was a “terrible decision,” and the business will appeal to the state Alcoholic Beverages Control Commission or through court action.
