H2O Restaurant and Lounge must close by 1:30 a.m

A city regulatory board will allow a District nightclub to reopen for a two-week probationary period to give the owners a chance to overhaul security, nearly two weeks after violence outside the club left a patron dead.
The District's Alcoholic Beverage Control Board voted unanimously yesterday that the H2O Restaurant and Lounge must close by 1:30 a.m., upgrade its security cameras and enhance training of security officers. The police department is to review the measures.
