ANDERSON, Ind. (WISH/Herald Bulletin) - A Sunday morning stabbing that left one man injured at an Anderson strip club stemmed from a shooting 20 years ago involving rival motorcycle gangs, the suspect told Police investigating the incident.

Jason Simmons, 36, was arrested at the VIP Show Club following an altercation that ended with a stabbing early Sunday morning.

According to court documents, cameras inside the club show Simmons facing Jesse Stone. The video allegedly shows Simmons reaching behind his back “and suddenly making stabbing motions towards the victim.”

According to court documents, Simmons told detectives the altercation started when the victim, Jesse Stone, started making comments about insignias on his black leather vest.

The probable cause illustrates how Simmons told detectives that Stone and another man were “there to kill him.”

Simmons faces a charge of aggravated and battery and possession of marijuana.

Stone was transported to a hospital in Indianapolis where he is listed in fair condition.
