They should have been charged with attempted murder. scum bags!
Send them to Prison, This is a nice quiet area of Kenosha and a nice quiet bar, This Kinda of trouble needs to be handled and not happen. SEND THEM TO PRISON
😆
Crappy people like these guys stand out like sore thumbs in a nice bar like Tipsy Kiwi. I’ve never even seen a shoving match, let alone a brawl, during my many TK visits. It’s owned by a very nice woman and I hope this incident doesn’t negatively affect future business.
Tipsy Kiwi should have security in place. This is on the owners for not protecting their customers. This bar is desperate to have all walks of life come in there. To have something every day to bring people in instead of letting the bar speak for its self is sad. I’ve been in the bar a few times and always seen kids in and out. If the kids work there no reason why they should be drinking or coming in and out after their shift. Saw a bartender maybe 18 years old drinking then on the bars Facebook page you see the picture to prove it. Then the bike club that goes in the one of the members asked my friends daughter if she was looking for anything. So I’m glad I’ll never go back to a place that’s just looking for trouble.
Agreed.
Why is a 5’1 female bartender, bouncing?
And why is a local motorcycle club inserting themselves at this bar as “the heavy” to “protect them”???
Good luck with this nonsense. More to come …..
Bartender should be in control of their bar and cut off customers BEFORE this kind of behavior gets started
Pull bartender’s license then go after the criminals
Get the whole story. They were kicked outof another bar and decided to go there but were told to leave as came in already looking for trouble and decided to cause it.
Send them back to Mexico.
Metcalf sure doesn’t sound like a Mexican name to me. Lol
Wasn’t there a really large motorcycle presence there that night? I also noticed some sign that they are the headquarters for some biker group. It’s not about motorcycles but the people.
Wonder if this is the issue….are they attracting the wrong types?
Some of the members are tired to so heavy drug pushers in this city. The owner is naïve.
Motorcycle club was not there or it wouldn’t have happened. I was there before when they were there and someone thought they would cause problems. They were escorted off the premises with no one getting hurt. I feel safe with them there and know they are a local group that works with the community. They just did backpack giveaways in Kenosha and Racine.
Vigilante motorcycle club security is a crazy business strategy that will only bring on liability.
Are they being paid and covered through the business insurance?
So is this Wolf Pack’s new club house, or a straight forward business that allows the takeover of this bar to the detriment of its clients?
“Customers” seeking trouble will find it knowing they can flex with a sitting MC in the corner. Dumb….
No way man Altamont went smooth as silk …….
Christopher Metcalf is my dentist!!! Not going back to that dentist office!!
Anybody with questions pertaining to the MC can happily direct them to [email protected] – Do your research on who we are and what we do before you publicly make fools out of yourselves. We welcome and encourage your questions. Hey, maybe you can even teach us something about ourselves – since you all seem to who we are and how we operate so well…..
