It all went down Tuesday night at Bodi nightclub in Chi-town when cops were tipped off that Bieber and his crew were inside the 21+ club and allegedly drinking alcohol.
Officials questioned nightclub employees and determined Bieber was, in fact, served alcohol in the club. Bieber was immediately kicked out of the place and cops delivered a citation to the club owners for: “Serve/allow person under 21 on premises w/o parent/guardian.”
The citation specifically refers to Justin Bieber and his “entourage.”
A rep for the Chicago Department of Business Affairs and Consumer Protection said,
“The ticket was issued by the police to Bodi Nightclub for admitting and knowingly having underage persons in the establishment.”
The rep adds,
“Typically the fine for a ticket like this would be $1,000.00, but the fine is not determined until the case is heard by a hearing officer and if the establishment is found liable for the violation.”
