PHILADELPHIA (WPVI) — A judge has granted the Philadelphia District Attorney’s Office’s request for an injunction to shut down an alleged illegal speakeasy where an off-duty police officer was shot and killed.<\/p>\n

Officer Alhassane Barry was fatally shot last month<\/a> at Nipsey’s Hookah Lounge on the 7200 block of Elmwood Avenue in Southwest Philadelphia.<\/p>\n

Barry was a two-year veteran of the force.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Investigators say video from inside the lounge shows the off-duty officer and a man arguing inside before the confrontation escalated outside.<\/p>\n

No charges have been filed.<\/p>\n

In a news conference last week<\/a>, D.A. Larry Krasner said a gun believed to be involved in the shooting was being tested.<\/p>\n
