Stripper Attacked Patron Over Lap Dance Dispute

OCTOBER 8--A stripper is facing an assault rap after she allegedly pummeled a male customer who turned down her repeated attempts to perform a lap dance inside a South Carolina club, cops report.

Nicole Maxine Passmore, 25, was busted late last night for misdemeanor assault in connection with the confrontation at Masters Gentlemen’s Club in Myrtle Beach.

According to a police report, patron Ernest Kadlick, 31, told officers that he was “having a good time in the club” with friends when Passmore (seen at right) approached them and repeatedly tried to “dance on him” while attempting to take money that Kadlick had placed on his table.

After turning down Passmore for a third and final time, Kadlick said that the dancer--who had launched into a lap dance--told him that he had a “sweet receding hairline.”

In response, Kadlick declared, “Yeah, and you’re a snaggle toothed bitch!”

According to Kadlick and several witnesses interviewed by Myrtle Beach Police Department investigators, the 5’ 6” Passmore then “got up and started striking [Kadlick] in the face…approximately 5-6 times.” Kadlick and his friends then left the club and police were called.

When an officer arrived at the strip joint, they found Kadlick (seen at left) holding a towel full of ice against his face. A cop reported observing “a welt coming from the area of left eyebrow.”

Passmore claimed that she struck Kadlick in response to being pushed by him (though there were no witnesses to corroborate that assertion). Passmore was then arrested and transported to the Myrtle Beach jail, where she was subsequently released on bond. (3 pages)
