Drama Next Door

From the Dallas Morning News: The owner of Bob's Steak & Chop House, the well-known, high-end Dallas steak restaurant, has been indicted for theft. Bob Sambol could face up to life in prison under the indictment, which was released Thursday. According to records, Sambol asked an investor, Lee Thompson, for $300,000 to add a cigar lounge to the restaurant's Oak Lawn location. Thompson was supposed to get a percentage of the profits in return, and the expansion was supposed to begin in January of last year, according to the records. But that didn't happen, and Sambol didn't pay back the money, the records say. An arrest warrant for Sambol was to be issued. Neither he nor his attorney could be reached immediately for comment.
