Investigators say the bar was involved in illegal drug sales.

In March, a speeding driver who had just left the bar crashed into an apartment, killing 42 year-old Jose Palacios Gonzalez and his daughter Samantha while they were sleeping.

The suspect, 24 year-old Octavio Montano Islas, still hasn't been caught.

A $25,000 reward is being offered in the case.
