Bellingham Bars Accused of Over-Serving Patrons
9/9/2007
A hit-and-run accident on June 1 was partially caused by two Bellingham bars that over-served the parties involved. Steven Rhone, 19, was hit and killed by a drunk driver who had spent the earlier part of the night drinking with a friend at the Bellingham bars.

Mackay and Littrell were reportedly over-served at two different Bellingham bars, the Horseshoe Café and Lounge and Johnny's Restaurant. The state Liquor Control Board is penalizing these bars for giving the two patrons involved in this drunk-driving crash too much to drink. Both bars have been given a seven-day suspension because of their failure to abide with the over-service laws. Thomas Dixon, a member of the board, said the bars should be held accountable.
