The Nebraska Liquor Control Commission has revoked the liquor license of a store owner in Whiteclay who is a convicted felon.
But the man's son is trying to restart the business, one of four stores that caters to a largely Indian clientele from the nearby Pine Ridge Reservation in South Dakota.
However, the son has violated state liquor law on two occasions, according to news reports.
Native activists and a group called Nebraskans for Peace have tried to shut down the liquor stores in Whiteclay, saying they routinely violate the law. The stores sell 11,000 cans of beer a year.
