- Regulators voted to impose a three-day suspension, crediting one day already served and holding two days in abeyance for one year.
- The board found violations for after-hours alcohol consumption, indoor smoking and unauthorized adult entertainment, and it found no violation for the sale of alcohol.
- Police responding around 2:20–2:30 a.m. reported a basement party with a DJ, several large hookahs, a strong odor of marijuana and tobacco, nude or partially nude dancers, scattered $1 bills and security briefly blocking access.
- Owner Helder George Brandao accepted responsibility but said unnamed Patriots players brought their own alcohol, hookahs, DJ and dancers, and he said they left without paying while he considers legal action.
- Officials stressed that celebrity guests receive no special treatment, citing prior scrutiny of the establishment and noting body-worn camera footage reviewed in the case, while the Patriots did not comment and no players were identified.
