DAYTONA BEACH — An Ormond Beach man got into an argument with bouncers at a strip club this morning and yelled racial slurs at them, police said, but when Jace David Keeler shouted the racial comments to people in a passing car someone shot him in the stomach.
Keeler, 21, was taken to Halifax Health Medical Center with a gunshot wound he suffered at 2:32 a.m. today near Diamond Dolls strip club at 301 Madison Ave., said police spokesman Jimmie Flynt.
According to the report of the shooting, Keeler was found lying on the ground near a utility pole and claimed a bouncer shot him. Police contacted the bouncers who told police Keeler got into an altercation with them earlier in the morning because Keeler was trying to sell drugs in the club.
The bouncers escorted Keeler out. Once outside, Keeler danced in the street and slapped his belt on the pavement yelling racial slurs at the bouncers, police said. Keeler kept putting his hands in his pocket as if he was going for a gun but never produced a weapon.
A black Chevrolet Caprice approached Keeler as he walked west on Madison Avenue and the driver asked Keeler what he was saying. Keeler then told the car’s driver, “I am not talking to you. I am talking to the (racial slur deleted) at the club,” police said.
The driver of the car then stepped outside and appeared to fire in the air but the adult club bouncers heard the shot and saw Keeler fall to the ground, the report states

Police arrested a 41-year-old Akron man who allegedly robbed a woman early this morning in the parking lot of a local strip club.
Police located Kenneth Johnson of Inman Street in the 1000 block of Nadia Court after receiving a call that a 58-year-old woman was being robbed in the parking lot of the Platinum Horse Cabaret, 1027 E. Waterloo Road.
The victim told police Johnson came at her from behind shortly after midnight and knocked her down in an attempt to get her purse and car keys.
Johnson allegedly took the victim’s cell phone, which officers found in his pocket when he was arrested, police said.
Johnson was charged with robbery.

NEW YORK, A New York woman who fell while performing a maneuver on a stripper pole at a workout facility is suing the fitness center, the woman’s lawyer said.
Sue Ann Wee said her injuries at the upper east side’s Crunch Fitness location in June kept her out of work for six months, the New York Daily News reported Thursday.
“It’s a dangerous maneuver, but if you tell somebody to do it, you have to be ready to spot them,” said Wee’s lawyer, Nicholas Warywoda, who added that Wee’s instructor prodded her to do the move. “The problem is not with these types of classes. The problem comes when you don’t properly supervise the people in those classes.”
Wee, an experienced tap and ballroom dancer, was hanging upside-down with her legs grasping the pole when she requested help from an instructor, the Daily News said.
“He (the instructor) just left her hanging,” Warywoda said.

Judge rules patrons can’t bring liquor to Sayreville strip club
by Aliyah Shahid/For The Star-Ledger
Friday August 07, 2009, 11:46 AM
SAYREVILLE — Patrons of a Sayreville strip club should plan on leaving their beer and wine at home, now that a Superior Court judge has dismissed an injunction he issued last month allowing the practice to continue.
‘Attendants at Yankee Stadium or Giants Stadium will be the same if beer is served or not. People are going for the game, not for the food or liquor.” — Superior Court Judge Glenn Berman
The injunction was placed on an ordinance Sayreville passed last month, prohibiting establishments without liquor licenses — except restaurants — from allowing customers to bring their own alcohol.
Greg Vella, an attorney representing 35 Club, also known as XXXV Gentleman’s Club, on Route 35, said the rule is discriminatory and singles out XXXV because of the risque nature of the business.
Middlesex County Superior Court Judge Glenn Berman, sitting in New Brunswick, ruled today that Club 35 did not demonstrate that it would be significantly harmed because of the BYOB ordinance. He said patrons go to such clubs for entertainment, not necessarily because they can bring their own beer or wine. He drew similarities between patrons at a strip club and those at a baseball game.
“Attendants at Yankee Stadium or Giants Stadium will be the same if beer is served or not,” said Berman. “People are going for the game, not for the food or liquor.”
The law, which took effect shortly after its unanimous passage on July 13, also limits the amount of alcohol customers may bring to a restaurant (enough for three people). In addition, restaurants may not charge an admission fee, membership fee, cover, corkage, or service charge. And, restaurants may not advertise that they are BYOB.
The new law also defines a restaurant as “having an adequate kitchen,” “served at tables by a restaurant employee” and “customers are provided an individual menu.”
Vella argued that XXXV has had no problems since they’ve been BYOB for two years, and that the law is subjective and an abuse of police power because officers will determine what an adequate restaurant entails.
“There’s no rational connection,” said Vella, who argued that the borough should either permit or ban all establishments that have BYOB. “It creates different classes of competition and a different class of citizens. It’s unfair competition.”
Gregory Bevelock, an attorney representing Sayreville, said the ordinance was created because the borough had problems with owners who abandoned their liquor licenses, which were in danger of being revoked and operated as BYOB establishments instead. Problems, like noise and violence, have persisted.
Bevelock also said there is no evidence that XXXV would be hurt financially because of the ordinance, and that competition is fair because the patrons of restaurants and strip clubs are not the same.
“This is based on the nonsensical notion that an all-nude dance club competes with restaurants,” said Bevelock.
Jeff Bertrand, the borough’s business administrator said the ordinance was not created to single out any particular establishment, and that some municipalities, including Wall Township and Rahway have similar ordinances.
The club is currently in litigation for allegedly violating a zoning law that states the club isn’t allowed to operate within 1,000 feet of homes or public parks.
The court will reconvene in October, when there will be a trial to determine if the ordinance is valid or not, said Vella. Until then, BYOB will be illegal at XXXV.
“We’re disappointed,” said Vella. “But, we’ll continue to fight this.”

CU student aims to open topless café in Boulder
By Amy Bounds (Contact)
Monday, July 6, 2009
BOULDER, Colo. — Boulder’s Dan Kennedy wants to open a coffee shop — but instead of competing with the likes of Starbucks by offering specialty drinks, he wants to steam up basic coffee and pre-packaged pastries with topless waitresses.
He’s looking to open a shop in August, one day a week in the morning.
Kennedy — who said he will be a sophomore at the University of Colorado in the fall after transferring from Whitman College in Washington — has placed ads on Craigslist for bouncers and women willing to work topless, saying he’s interviewing three women and three potential bouncers Friday. He’s offering to pay the women $80 to $100 for a morning.
But he said he’s still researching the steps he needs to make the cafe legal. He also needs a location. His ideal spot would be a conference room at CU, though he’s also looking on University Hill.
By offering only drip coffee and prepackaged food, he said, “There’s no license and no regulations.”
But, CU spokesman Bronson Hilliard said, there are strict regulations governing businesses on campus — plus a student code of conduct that would prohibit operating an adult business at the university.
He said students can rent conference rooms for “normal campus activities,” such as study groups. Bottom line, he said, a topless coffee shop “is not going to be allowed.”
“This is a half-baked idea,” he said.
Kennedy said CU students are a big part of his target audience, and he’s considering charging a $12 cover fee to avoid attracting a crowd just looking to ogle the waitresses.
His job listing for the bouncer says the employee “will be checking IDs to make sure they are 18 plus. Making sure topless girls feel safe and no inappropriate behavior from customers.”
He acknowledged that some people likely will object to his risque business venture.
“It’s probably going to cause a pretty big stir,” he said.
A controversial topless coffee shop in a rural Maine town drew national attention — and was burned down in June by an arsonist after just four months in business. Before the fire, the owner had received 150 applications for 10 positions.
Locally, a strip club off the Pearl Street Mall that opened in late 2007 drew concerns from zoning and building-code officials soon after it opened. The city recently looked into ways to regulate adult businesses before they opened, but the Boulder City Council has yet to agree to any changes.
The city’s options include using zoning rules to limit where such establishments could open. Some cities, for example, forbid strip clubs from doing business within 1,500 feet of a church, school, child-care center, park or other adults-only venue.
The city could decide to issue licenses to strip clubs instead, a process that could resemble the way liquor licenses are handed out now.
Mayor Matt Appelbaum said it may be worth looking at the zoning regulations and giving the community a chance to offer feedback.
“Our regulations don’t really preclude these businesses,” he said. “There clearly are locations where they are not appropriate.”
City Councilwoman Susan Osborne said she doesn’t want the council to spend time on the issue, adding that she hasn’t seen much of a market for strip clubs and similar adult businesses in Boulder.
“There are so many big things going on right now,” she said. “This would just be a distraction.”

Ah, baseball.
America’s pastime. Cracker Jack. Cold beer. Hot dogs.
And body glitter?
That’s the upshot of a decision issued Friday by a King County Superior Court judge, who cleared the way for a proposed Déjà Vu strip club — adult cabaret in the court’s parlance — near Safeco Field.
Stripper’s pole meets foul pole.
Over the objections of the Seattle Mariners and the public utility that operates the field, Judge John Erlick found that the City of Seattle did not err in permitting the proposed First Avenue club.
Erlick rejected the Mariners assertion that the City Council meant to keep strip clubs at least 800 feet away from “areas where children congregate” or sports arenas. That language is absent from the city ordinance drafted after Seattle’s wholesale ban on new strip clubs was rejected as unconstitutional.
“If (the council) had intended to require dispersion from all places where children tend to congregate, it would have specifically included that language,” Erlick said Friday. “This court refuses to read words into the ordinance which do not exist in the plain language.”
During an earlier hearing, attorneys for the Mariners argued that the city had erred in permitting the club because Safeco should be considered a park or open space. One area the Mariners pointed to was a park is primarily used for bus parking; another is private property that may be developed in the future.
The proposed Déjà Vu would be on First Avenue South just south of Safeco Field, about 400 feet from the main home-plate entrance. The rear door of the club would be about 120 feet from a parking garage plaza where school buses frequently drop off students attending games.
Opponents of the club will decide in coming days whether to appeal Erlick’s ruling, said Bart Waldman, Mariners executive vice president for governmental affairs.
“We’re obviously disappointed,” Waldman said. “For now, we’re just going to absorb the opinion.”
Lauding the ruling, Peter Buck, attorney for the club owners, said the Mariners’ moralizing throughout the legal proceeding strained credulity.
Buck dismissed the Mariners’ assertions that children would be harmed by the strip club as specious.
Buck noted that a Déjà Vu club across First Avenue from Pike Place Market has done little to discourage or offend tourists there. And, like all Washington state strip clubs, the proposed facility will not serve alcohol.
The Mariners, however, do at Safeco Field.
“The Mariners mainly made a moral pitch, that this facility would be harmful to children,” Buck said. “If they were really worried about children, they’d clean up their own act.”
Erlick’s ruling marked the first serious test of the 4-year-old restrictions on where strip clubs can be. Buck praised it as showing that business owners can get a fair shake, regardless of the business they’re in.
“It means that an operation such as my client’s can rely on the law as it is written,” Buck said. “This law isn’t about someone’s moral values.”
The Mariners have 30 days to file an appeal. If the team doesn’t appeal, Buck said the club will likely open in six months.

An Ohio pastor has won a lawsuit filed by an adult entertainment club against him and part of his congregation.
Several years ago, Pastor William Dunfee of New Beginnings Ministries in New Castle started demonstrating in front of the “Foxhole” strip club. City attorney Tom Condit represented the church.
“They had signs and they would try to persuade men to not patronize the place. They would try to persuade the girls who danced there not to work there,” he notes, “and they just did the best they could to ideally shut the place down — make it go out of business.”
The protestors took photos of license plates of vehicles whose owners went into the facility and then posted them on the ministry’s website. In response, the club sued the ministry members and the sheriff’s department for not getting rid of the protesters.
“It was actually set for trial in mid-July, and the federal judge saw the evidence that was submitted in writing and said there is no federal claim here, and he threw the case out,” Condit adds.
Condit points out people have a constitutional right to conduct peaceful protests

A major bust at a local adult strip club has resulted in 13 dancers being arrested for soliciting prostitution. Police allege the dancers were doing much more than dancing.
Metro made the arrests early Monday morning. Police say busts like this, are not uncommon, but the number of arrests is what makes this one stand out.
“It’s a pretty substantial. I don’t know how many particular entertainers were working in that establishment that night but 13 is a lot of folks,” said Lieutenant Karen Hughes, Metro.
All of the female dancers were arrested for soliciting prostitution. Police say it is now up to them to post bail or wait 48 hours to make a court appearance and be released.
Hughes works with Metro’s vice squad, and would not go into detail about how the arrests were made, but says this is part of her team’s job.
“They’re out there every night, working street operations, hotel operations, book stores, anywhere where people that come to Las Vegas are going to go to find something that’s just off the radar.”
Right now, Metro says Deja Vu management is not facing any charges.
“They will check to make sure there are not any key employees who are involved in those acts, because if that’s the case, then the license will be in jeopardy.”
Deja Vu’s General Manager Bob Proden says this is the first time a bust of this size has happened in the club’s 15 year history. He says the club has received dance code violations in the past but those were eventually dropped.

A DJ at the Fifth Alarm strip club in Springfield was stabbed Sunday by a stripper at the club.
The female suspect is only ID’ed as a 22 year old female from Holyoke. Police are in the process of obtaining a warrant for her arrest.
Springfield Captain C. Lee Bennett told 22News that the stripper lashed out at a male DJ and stabbed him just after 5 o’clock.
The female then fled the strip club on foot and is still at large.
There is no description of the suspect but the incident is still under investigation.
Springfield police believe the male DJ was transported to a local hospital though there is no word on his condition.
