Texas Attorney General sues San Antonio's Paper Tiger for stopping officer from bringing gun inside
Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton has sued Paper Tiger, alleging the San Antonio music venue illegally blocked a police officer from bringing a service weapon onto its premises. Paper Tiger staff prevented SAPD Officer Raul Tijerina from entering with his weapon on Jan. 17, according to the lawsuit filed on Thursday in Bexar County District Court against restaurateur Chad Carey's Empty Stomach Group, which owns the club at 2410 N. St. Mary's St. “Officer Tijerina attempted to inform management of the law, but they refused to listen,” the suit alleges.
