Greensboro, NC -- Two men have been charged in connection with a robbery of a man outside Platinum Cabaret on Mary Street early Friday morning.

The victim told officers that two men approached him just after midnight in the parking lot of the strip club. They showed a gun and demanded money from him. After the robbery, the suspects took off in a blue SUV with the victim's cash and other property.

Police searched the area and located the SUV with the two suspects inside.

Bertie McQueen and Robert Alexander have been charged with Armed Robbery, Conspiracy To Commit Robbery, and Possession of a Firearm by a Felon.

Robert Alexander is being held on $100,000 bond. A photo and bond amount was not immediately available for Bertie McQueen.


Greensboro, NC -- A fight inside the Platinum Cabaret led to a shooting outside the business.

In a report, police said a fight started inside the strip club and spilled into the parking lot when two men began shooting.

The victims, Travis Sturdivant and Maurice Nichols, were taken to a hospital for treatment of non-life-threatening injuries.

Witnesses say the two suspects drove away in a two-tone green Dodge Charger.

This isn't the first incident at the Platinum Cabaret. In April, staff members said they asked a man to leave following an altercation. The man returned and fired a gun at the business.

Police are still investigating the incident.

    Does it seem like most shooting victims at strip clubs, if they don't die on the spot, drive themselves to the hospital?
