Detroit Police are looking for the gunman who opened fire on five people at a strip club on Detroit’s west side. The shooting happened at the Penthouse Lounge on Livernois near Joy. A customer got into an argument with a stripper and the argument ended up outside. The man was thrown out but came back later and started shooting. He may not be the only one who fired shots. Four men, ages 29 to 52, and the 37-year-old dancer were shot. The four men are listed in stable condition and the dancer received a graze wound and refused medical treatment. The shooter was able to escape on foot. He is described as 6’4″, 260 lbs., with a beard and mustache, and wearing all black clothes.
