Police close alleged speakeasy in downtown Birmingham

BIRMINGHAM Police are being mum on the details of an alleged speakeasy operation downtown that reportedly was busted up last month.
During his regular report to the City Commission April 26, City Manager Tom Markus detailed an illegal bar and music venue operating in an empty retail space in the 200 block of Willits Street. He said police closed the establishment and issued 16 citations for misdemeanor offenses ranging from illegal occupancy where a special land use permit is required to selling alcohol without a liquor license.
“We had what I call a blind pig or a speakeasy running in the community, and we put them out of business,” Markus said. “I think it went on longer than most people realize but, in its later months, probably got a little more cranked up. They were clearly in violation of the law.”

The team, its seventh season, christened the new downtown stadium by drawing a 2-2 tie in front of an estimated 2,200. The friendly was the final exhibition match for the Switchbacks.
