A belligerent patron pulled a gun on a bartender Wednesday night at a west Lincoln[NE] strip club, according to police.
The man brandished a large semi-automatic pistol just before 10 p.m. in The Office, 640 W. Prospector Court, and pointed it at a 35-year-old woman, who dived behind the bar, Lincoln Police Capt. Danny Reitan said.
When she raised her head, Reitan said, the man again pointed the gun.
Another patron saw the events unfold and told police the man with the gun yelled at the bartender. He said another man then grabbed the arm of the person with the gun and pulled him from the establishment, leaving a recently served beer behind on the bar, Reitan said.
The bartender told police the man didn't make any threats and didn't yell at her, contradicting the other patron's story, Reitan said.
Reitan described the man as white, 35 to 42 years old, 5-foot-10 to 6 feet, and 150 pounds. He wore a red T-shirt.
The club's owner declined to comment.
