"When I went into that space, it's all brick, with amazing wood floors," says Three Kings co-owner Derek Deaver of 6315 Delmar Boulevard, which housed Hopcat from 2018 to 2020. "I said, 'It looks just like a Three Kings!'"

11 months ago
The St. Louis police officer behind the wheel of the SUV that smashed into Bar:PM in the early hours of Monday morning had no toxicology test done on him in the wake of the incident. At their weekly briefing, St. Louis Metropolitan Police Lieutenant Colonel Renee Kriesmann said that no such test was conducted on the officer because the police only do those tests when there is a "reasonable suspicion" of drug or alcohol use, which police didn't feel was the case following the crash.
