The
Post reports today that a 25-year-old Brooklyn woman "lost consciousness" while sitting on a couch at No Fun on Saturday night.
According to the
Post:
A friend discovered the unresponsive woman and called 911, cops said. When police arrived, the concerned caller told them the victim had been drinking and using cocaine earlier in the day, police sources said.
No drugs were found at the time.
The woman, whose name has not been made public, was pronounced dead at Beth Israel.
No Fun, at 161 Ludlow St. between Houston and Stanton, is "often considered by neighbors to be one of the worst quality-of-life offenders within the confines of Hell Square,"
according to BoweryBoogie in reporting on a recent street brawl outside the establishment.
In 2016, the owners of No Fun sued the Lower East Side Dwellers community organization for defamation.
As The Lo-Down
reported:
Operators of the bar ... took issue with the Dwellers’ contention in emails and during a public meeting that the night spot lacked a certificate of occupancy. They claimed that this assertion damaged the bar’s reputation.
The lawsuit was dismissed in state supreme court earlier this month.
