I also asked the officer if they could patrol this block more and station a car on the block for a few weeks. “Going forward, I will be placing a camera outside that can see license plates. The cops said they would look into it but without a plate number or description of the person/people in the car. “No one on the patio got a description of the car and our camera system doesn’t record the street. The cops were called and actually showed up this time. In as statement posted on The Iron Bear’s Facebook page, Beshear said: “So someone in a black or dark colored car threw a firecracker onto the patio about 1:08am.

A karaoke night was being held at The Iron Bar at the time of the incident. He said that another firework was thrown onto the sidewalk outside the bar on June 28, which was also a karaoke night.

Beshear told the regional paper he did not know if the bar was targeted because it was a gay venue, saying that he did not hear any anti-gay slurs being shouted, but added that he was “little more concerned this time because this is the second time this happened.”
