DLC Official: Hearing Scheduled to Review Rockville Hooters Liquor License (VIDEO)

A Hooters restaurant located on Rockville Pike could potentially lose its liquor license for allegedly over-serving an intoxicated patron who has plead guilty to driving and fatally striking Montgomery County Police Officer Noah Leotta in December 2015. In this MyMCMedia Extra video, below, Kathie Durbin,  division chief at the Montgomery County Department of Liquor Control, talks about the restaurant’s alleged violations and an upcoming hearing, scheduled for June 16.

MyMCMedia contacted Hooters of America and company officials released the following statement: “Due to a pending investigation, it would be inappropriate for Hooters to respond with any fact specific details to press inquiries. However, all Hooters’ employees are trained on responsible alcohol service and Hooters expects its employees to follow and adhere to those policies.”
