OMAHA, Neb. — The owner of an Omaha restaurant was sentenced this week to two years in federal prison for allowing employees to sell cocaine.
48-year old Ismael Zambrano-Tirado will also have to serve one year of supervised release.
The FBI Investigated Zambrano-Tirado’s restaurant El Catrin for almost two years for a suspected drug trafficking ring.
FBI informants say they bought cocaine inside the restaurant while Zambrano-Tirado was present.
Authorities say a search of his home uncovered over 13-thousand dollars in cash.
Six others have been convicted of cocaine distribution related to the investigation.
