Alcohol permit lifted at Indy bar where shooting killed 1 and wounded 5, including police officer

Indiana officials have revoked the liquor license of an Indianapolis bar where one person was killed and five others, including a police officer, were injured in a shooting over the weekend.

INDIANAPOLIS — Indiana officials on Tuesday revoked the liquor license of an Indianapolis bar where one person was killed and five others, including a police officer, were injured in a shooting over the weekend.

The Indiana Alcohol and Tobacco Commission has voted unanimously to revoke the liquor license renewal for 11:11 Bar & Grille on the far east side of town. The bar was operating under the license of another establishment while it appealed the denial of its own license, commission officials said.

Two Indianapolis Metropolitan Police Department officers in full uniforms were working off-duty around 1:30 a.m. Sunday when a disturbance broke out in the parking lot, Chief Christopher Bailey said at a news conference.

Both officers exchanged gunfire with at least one suspect, and one officer was shot in the upper leg and suffered an additional shoulder injury that may have occurred when he fell after being shot, Bailey said. The officer who was later shot was released from a hospital, police said.

Four other people shot in the parking lot were taken to hospitals with non-life-threatening injuries. The victims included two 45-year-old men, a 42-year-old man and a 33-year-old woman, Bailey said.

A short time later, a man arrived at a hospital with injuries consistent with gunshot wounds and died despite treatment by medical staff, Bailey said.

The person who was killed has been identified as 37-year-old Dominique Lamonte Durham Sr.

An attempt to reach the bar for comment failed because a voicemail box was full. The Indianapolis Star reported that the bar’s owners, Nachelle Moore and Shellie Branson, had not returned messages left for them.
