TACOMA — Tacoma police are trying to shut down a bar where three people were wounded last week in a gang-related shooting.

Police are asking for an emergency suspension of the business and liquor licenses for McCabe's American Music Cafe.

In the past year there have been 178 calls to McCabe's for crimes that include fights, rapes and robberies.

Assistant Chief Bob Sheehan told the Liquor Control Board that with the recent shootings the situation at McCabe's has reached a critical stage.

In a statement last week the manager of McCabe's said it takes safety seriously but it could not have prevented the shooting.
