When asked whether he believed the suspect would have just shown his face prior to the pandemic, Kirby claimed that police told him that \u201ccriminals would be capitalizing on the mask mandate all over using it to their advantage to get away with crimes.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>He also admitted to Fox News that the police suspected the burglary was an \u201cinside job.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>A spokesperson for the West Melbourne Police Department told Fox News on Friday morning that a police report was filed following the alleged burglary. Police also said that Kirby has been \u201cuncooperative\u201d with any attempts to investigate the burglary further and has refused to meet with detectives.<\/p>\n<p>The bar\u2019s new ban on masks has received mixed reviews on <a href=\"https:\/\/buradabiliyorum.com\/en\/category\/social-mediaa\/\" data-internallinksmanager029f6b8e52c=\"1\" title=\"Social Media\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">social media<\/a>, with people as far away as Texas and California writing bad online reviews for the business, Kirby says. However, he told Fox News he also has \u201chundreds\u201d of messages of support from fans on Facebook.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI\u2019m getting messages on my Facebook saying, \u2018Hey, football, we\u2019re coming there to watch the <a href=\"https:\/\/buradabiliyorum.com\/en\/category\/game\/\" data-internallinksmanager029f6b8e52c=\"7\" title=\"Game\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">game<\/a>,\u2019\u201d he told Fox 35.<\/p>\n<p>But even with Kirby\u2019s mask ban in place, customers won\u2019t be able to walk into the bar without any type of screening at all. According to Kirby, a doorman greets guests out front and takes patrons\u2019 temperatures before they can enter.<\/p>\n<p>Once inside, any patron who dons a mask will be asked to remove it, <a rel=\"nofollow noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.wesh.com\/article\/we-do-not-believe-in-them-brevard-bar-bans-people-wearing-masks\/34061551#\">WESH 2 reported.<\/a> If they refuse to comply, they will be thrown out.<\/p>\n<p>West Melbourne, which is located in Brevard County, does not mandate that businesses require patrons to wear masks before entering. Instead, county commissioners decided in July that businesses must clearly state their own mask policies \u2014 and whether they require them \u2014 at entrances.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe simply encourage residents to follow CDC recommendations \u2014 which is to wear a mask.
