A businessman is suing a strip club after he received injuries to his face from a kick a stiletto-wearing dancer gave him.
Michael Ireland, 35, said that he was struck “suddenly and without warning” while watching the strip show, and had to be hospitalised after stripper Sakeena “Suki” Shageer’s kick left him with eye injuries and a broken nose.
But bosses at the Cheetah nightclub, in West Palm Beach, Florida, said that the customer was kicked after he violently slapped the girl’s behind.

quoted club manager Rod Kimbrough as saying. “She’s a very nice, young, small girl, definitely did nothing in a malice way,” he added.
