Man shot outside Detroit strip club

A 29-year-old Detroiter was shot early this morning after an argument in a strip club with a history of problems, said Detroit Police Second Deputy Chief James Tate.

The man and a 29-year-old Florida man argued about 1:30 a.m. in the Sting strip club on Michigan Avenue near Livernois and the incident became physical outside the club, Tate said.

A dancer from the club also was involved in the fight, Tate said. A woman, who also could be a dancer, fired at least one shot from a nearby car, striking the Detroit man, police said.

He was taken to an area hospital where he was listed in temporary serious condition, police said. The others involved in the fight were not seriously injured or struck by a bullet, police said.

Tate said Police Chief Ella Bully-Cummings is working with Wayne County Prosecutor Kym Worthy to shut the club because police are called to the club so often.

An off-duty Detroit police officer was fatally shot in the club about three years ago while working as a bouncer there. It is against department policy to moonlight as a bouncer, Tate said.

In April, someone fired shots at Detroit Piston Flip Murray at his Troy home after he visited the club.
