Investigation After Stripper Falls During Lap Dance
2013-01-03
[FOX8] A woman was seriously injured after a bizarre incident inside a local strip club early Wednesday morning.
How can any incident that might happen in a strip club be termed 'bizarre'?
It happened at Christie's Caberet in The Flats, just after 1 a.m.

According to police, 22-year-old Lauren Block, of Richmond Heights, was reportedly on the second floor of the club when she went over the balcony and landed on her head. Police said they were first told the woman had been thrown over the balcony, but once they arrived, they realized it was an accident.

According to a report from Cleveland police, a witness said he was getting a lap dance from Block on the second floor of the club when something went terribly wrong.

The reporting officer said this of the incident: "(The witness) stated that (the dancer) grabbed the rail, as he was facing away from the balcony, and she tried to complete some sort of jump/dance move, and accidentally went head first over the rail."

Block reportedly fell 15 feet and suffered "major head trauma."

She was taken to MetroHealth Medical Center, where she is listed in critical condition.

Police said there is no further investigation on their side, because it appears to have been a horrible accident.

However, the Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) is investigating.
Notice that last sentence is not highlighted in any color. We really don't make this stuff up.

#9  OSHA will be sure to investigate and remove every layer of possible issue to revel the truth. They might be willing to go under deep cover.

Ok sorry... couldn't resist.

#8  Congress will probably have to have safety hearings and call the dancers in one by one for questioning.

Because, if you can't trust the word of strip joint employees, who can you trust...
