A store dubbed 'Little Shop of Horrors' had now had its licence revoked after a history of violence and selling to minors. The store once saw a member of staff hit a customer over the head with a hammer and had a Samurai sword behind the counter.
A hearing was held at Grimsby Town Hall to discuss the future of Cartergate News and Wine in the town. The meeting was called by the chief constable of Humberside Police after he requested its licence be revoked due to "serious concerns" over the management of the premises, Grimsby Live reports.
Thambiah Rameshkumar first took responsibility for the premises' licence in 2007, his wife Jeyathevi Rameshkumar also then became a holder in 2021. They have since been involved in multiple issues related to crime and disorder and the protection of children from harm and public safety.
