Man Arrested For Breaking Into Bar, Selling Drinks

Auburn,CA. A Placer County man has been arrested after he broke into a shuttered bar, reopened the business and started selling drinks to unwitting customers, according to the Placer County Sheriff's department.

The Placer County Sheriff's department arrested 29-year-old Travis Kevie of Newcastle after his 4-day stint as the barkeep of the historic Valencia Club in Penryn which had been shutdown for more than a year.

Detective Jim Hudson became suspicious after reading about the Valencia Club's re-opening in an Auburn Journal newspaper article that featured a picture of Kevie and identified him as the club's new "owner/operator". Not only had Detective Hudson had previous run-ins with Kevie, he knew the Valencia Club's liquor license had been surrendered.

When Detective Hudson went to the bar to investigate, he found it open for business and customers at the bar. Kevie quickly went from behind the bar to behind bars.

Deputies describe Kevie as a transient. They say he broke into the Valencia Club and put an open sign in the window on July 16th. Kevie kicked off his business with a six-pack of beer he bought and resold at the club. He used his profits to buy more alcohol keeping the club open throughout the weekend serving about 30 customers a day, deputies say.

If this guy was an illegal alien the state would demand we pay his legal fees, and the state would demand an official apology for being racist.

C'mon. Lighten up. You can't tell me there isn't a tiny part of you that admires this guy's creativity and spirit.

Not one bit, he is a common crook and also very stupid to have his picture taken.

CNN’s busy right now saying that the Mexicans evading Arizona are costing the state “$2 billion in revenue”.

How much revenue is being lost by the closure of this illegal bar I wonder?

I'm shocked to learn that newspapers still write any local news about bars and restaurants that don't take out advertising in the same papers!

GET THE TRUTH ABOUT ILLEGAL ALIENS WITH FBI STATS!

FBI STATS
With all the negative reports being printed in the news media here are the statistics they fail to report.

And remember YOU are supporting ALL of these illegals no matter where they are now. Every time another illegal runs the border breaking our laws, your pocket just gets lighter and robbed more.
AND, they all are potential voters for the “progressives” — I’d guess that’s why the politicians are sitting on their fingers doing nothing to secure the border!!

Yeah, it’s against the law...but a guy who reopens a closed bar as a blind pig operation in this day and age has a certain style. Awesome.
