Two restaurants featur- ing cuisines from around the globe, each won liquor licenses at the April 22 City Council meeting. McBani, a Lebanese restaurant at 409 Broad- way, has been in Seaside at this location since 2012. Owner Randy McBoul sought a limited on-rem- ises sales license allow- ing for the sale of malt beverages, wine and cider for consumption on the premises. Angelina’s Pizza and Cafe at 1815 South Roo- sevelt Drive sought to obtain a full on-premises commercial liquor license. Elizabeth Hall of Angelina’s said she was responding to requests from guests for wine and specialty drinks. With 20 employees, she said the license was needed for an additional revenue stream to stay afl oat. She said the restaurant will keep the same hours, to 10 weekdays and 11 on Friday and Saturdays. While police due dil- igence showed “conduct issues” with some employ- ees, Angelina’s record has been “spotless” since the restaurant opened serving beer and wine last year, Mayor Jay Barber said. A March 8 incident report cited Hall for failing to put up barriers between the outside service area where alcohol is allowed and the parking lot. Det. Bill Barnes checked the barriers on April 15, which he said, while not fi nished, “suffi ce as a barrier at this time.” While it should not be considered a “repudiation” of the police department, Barber said, he and coun- cilors Tom Horning, Tita Montero, Randy Frank, Seth Morrisey and Dana Phillips voted to support the license application. Steve Wright voted against issuance of the license. April 26 9:14 a.m., 2600 block High- way 101: Emergency medical response; Medix on scene.

May 1 7:22 a.m., Avenue K and Beach: Fire investigation. Forest Grove man’s death ruled accidental Man sought for questioning By BRENNA VISSER The Astorian An autopsy from the state medical examiner determined Travis Todd, the Forest Grove man reportedly assaulted in Seaside in March, died from complications related to intoxication. On March 30, Seaside police received a report around 3 a.m. from wit- nesses staying in a home near the intersection of Avenue K and S. Colum- bia Street saying they saw Todd have a loud conver- sation and interaction with another person. The emergency call led police to initially believe a physical altercation had taken place. Todd was treated at the scene for his injuries and eventually taken to a Port- land-area hospital, where he died on April 8. T h e autopsy determined the offi cial cause of Travis Todd death was complica- tions from acute intoxica- tion that were accidental in nature. Detectives are still looking for more informa- tion about where Todd was and who he was with one to two hours after he left local bars. Investigators believe Todd was with a white male that was wear- ing dark, baggy clothing. The possible witness is believed to be in his late 20s to early 30s, approx- imately 6-feet tall, with a medium, athletic build. As previously reported, Todd may have been on the beach or walking along the Promenade prior to the incident. Anyone with informa- tion is asked to call Seaside police at 503-738-6311.
