NW Miami-Dade Banquet Hall Where Mass Shooting Occurred Deemed Unsafe

MIAMI (CBSMiami) – Miami-Dade County officials have deemed the El Mula Banquet Hall, where the Memorial Day weekend mass shooting took place, an unsafe structure.

A spokesperson for the Department of Regulatory and Economic Resources said they conducted an inspection after the shooting and found that work had been done without permits.

That work included electrical, which was deemed a safety hazard.

The venue was also not operating as a simple banquet hall, which is what their certificate is for.

The power has been cut and all violations would need to be fixed before it's restored.
