Owner Of Monkey Barrel In Salisbury Accused Of Rape

Posted: Updated:

BALTIMORE, Md. - A Salisbury bar owner is accused of raping a customer at another business he owns. Police have charged 29-year-old Matthew Lasinski, the owner of the Monkey Barrel, with sexual assaulting a woman in the bathroom of the Blue Agave in Baltimore, on New Year's Day.

The restaurant apparently posted a statement on its Facebook page. It reads in part "we have video, as well as witnesses, that directly contradict the accuser's allegations." If Lasinski is convicted, the Monkey Barrel could lose it's liquor license.
