PITTSBURGH (KDKA) – A local bar and restaurant has fired a DJ after he allegedly made “offensive” comments on Facebook about the death of Dakota James.

Tequila Cowboy, which is located on the North Shore, posted a statement on Facebook stating that the employee is no longer with the company following the post.

The employee allegedly posted, “Please stop throwing bodies in the river…it’s almost boat season. At least give them cement shoes if you’re gonna.”

In their response to the post, Tequila Cowboy says they do not condone such behavior and these are not the views of beliefs of the restaurant or any of their other stores.
