Police say 32-year-old Darrell Gregg and 28-year-old Tommy Stargell Jr. were shot and killed at the bar last week after an argument.

District Attorney Richard Bower issued the injunction on Wednesday.

Bower has referred to Sails Inn as a “nuisance bar” in the past and mentioned that there have been 74 incidents involving police at the bar before the double homicide.
