Derrick Coleman's Restaurant Evicted

Former Detroit Piston and rumored baby daddy of Flavor of Love winner Deelishis Derrick Coleman's Detroit restaurant 'Sweet Georgia Brown' got evicted from it's Greektown location for non-payment of rents. According to reports, the restaurant owed more than $70,000.00 in back rent and employees complained of bouncing paychecks. When contacted Derrick claimed not to know the restaurant was facing eviction but blamed it on the poor economy saying, "I am most concerned about my valued employees that have been with me from the beginning. I want to assist them in any way possible as my employees depend on me. With the economy, fine dining dollars are just not there -- especially in the City of Detroit. Businesses open and close every day, and it was news to me that Sweet Georgia Brown's would be evicted this morning. The workers are my main concern."
