Fulton Deputy Charged with Running Illegal Nightclub

A Fulton County sheriff’s deputy was arrested and charged earlier this month with illegally running a nightclub along Metropolitan Parkway in south Atlanta.

According to The Atlanta Journal-Constitution, Devon Brown, who has been with the department 19 years, has been placed on personal leave following what was described as a routine compliance check of the club on Feb. 8.

Brown was “unable to produce an alcohol license, an up-to-date permit for his coin-operated billiard table” at the club, where police also detected the odor of marijuana burning and witnessed “four or five nude women running into the back of the establishment.”
