It probably happens, but I can't imagine why a bar owner would open carry. Maybe in one of those "Roadhouse" type places.

Houston police reported that a bar owner and patron got into an altercation. The patron, Courtney Aiken, was asked to leave, but returned a short time later and rushed toward the bar owner. The bar owner, fearing that Aiken had another gun, fired at him, hitting him.

Courtney Aiken, 28 was taken to Ben Taub Hospital, where he later died. No charges have been filed.

It is interesting that the initial reports stated that a "business owner" got into an altercation with a patron. Later reports indicated that the business was a bar. The reports also stated that Aiken pulled a gun and was disarmed by other patrons. Later he returned and confronted the business owner, Johnnie Patterson, who shot him.

This sounds like a "no bill" to me. It also sounds like one should stay away from bars in SE Houston.
