CINCINNATI - The Cadillac Ranch in downtown Cincinnati has reopened after being temporarily closed Wednesday as Internal Revenue Service agents combed through documents at the restaurant and bar.

The IRS was there doing what appeared to be an audit.

Several agents at the 6th Street bar carried dozens of cardboard boxes full of documents from the establishment. The agents then organized the paperwork by date in front of the building.

There was a sign on the door saying the bar was to be temporarily closed. It reopened at 4 p.m. Wednesday.

9 News attempted to contact representatives from Cadillac Ranch, but they said they could not comment.
