TABC has suspended 17 bars across Texas, including another in Fort Worth Stockyards
A second Fort Worth bar has been temporarily closed by authorities for violating state reopening orders on limited capacity during the coronavirus pandemic.
The Cantina Cadillac of the Stockyards joins nearby The New PR’s, which was suspended for 30 days on Sunday.
The suspension is part of Operation Safe Open, a Texas Alcoholic Beverage Commission effort to ensure safety measures are followed to slow the spread of COVID-19. Protocols include indoor customer capacity limits of 50% for bars and 75% for restaurants, along with social distancing of at least 6 feet.
Across the state, 17 businesses as of Monday have been shuttered for violations.
