TOLEDO -- A co-owner of the Rodeo Bar & Grill in Oregon has been sentenced on a misdemeanor charge of possession of dangerous drugs.
Johnathan Roumaya, 23, received a 180-day jail sentence Monday with 170 of those days suspended. He will serve three days at the Corrections Center of Northwest Ohio and the remaining seven days on electronic monitoring. Roumaya also received two years probation, a $450 fine and 50 hours of community service.
In exchange for his plea, the drug-related charges filed against Roumaya's fellow co-owners Michael Yousif, 26, and Glenn Murdzia, 22, were dismissed.
The Rodeo Bar & Grille is believed to be where Michael Gagnon, 24, was drinking Dec. 30 prior to heading the wrong way on I-280 and crashing the pickup he was driving into a van, killing five members of a Maryland family.
Authorities searched the bar in Jan. and found steroids and syringes in a filing cabinet. The items found were listed as a blister pack containing nine tablets of Clenbuterol, a bottle with liquid Clenbuterol, several vials of the human growth hormone Jintropin, and a bag of syringes. Clenbuterol is a steroid used in meat production that is banned in the US.
