Downtown Sacramento Restaurant Facing Possible Eviction

SACRAMENTO (CBS13) — A Downtown Sacramento restaurant co-owned by a Kings player is in danger of being evicted.

El Rey, which means "the king", is on K Street near DOCO. The building's owner alleges in a lawsuit that the restaurant's owners owe more than $50,000 in rent.

The suit was filed in hopes of recouping the money, ending the lease, and evicting the restaurant.

El Rey is owned by a group registered to Kings player Kenny Thomas.

CBS13 has reached out to the group several times, but we have not been able to speak with anyone about the lawsuit.
