The mind boggles at this one: A guy trying to sneak in the dressing room of nude performers. What did he expect to see?
Women with their clothes on?
A few minutes before 2 a.m. Saturday, a Seattle police officer was dispatched to the Lusty Lady ââ¬â the peep show strip club in the 1300 block of First Avenue.
A man there planned to crawl into the dancers' dressing room, police said. When they arrived, he was still in the ceiling crawl space.
"SPD officers arrived and contacted the suspect as he was attempting to climb down near the front door," an officer wrote in an incident report. "The subject ââ¬Â¦ was taken into custody (by) SPD officers after he jumped down from the crawl space."
The man was booked into King County Jail for investigation of malicious mischief and had a probable cause hearing Saturday. But a malicious mischief charge wasn't filed, and he was released from jail Monday night.
Police were told the man, 27, entered the Lusty Lady through the front door backwards and entered stall No. 7. Police said he climbed through the ceiling panels and onto the glass ceiling above the dance floor.
A stripper "was startled when (the man's) legs came crashing through the glass panel ceiling above her," according to the police report. "She stated before the subject fell through she had heard what she thought was kicking or pounding above her head."
