Houston strip club raid results in 15 arrests; kitchen closed

An undercover raid on a Galleria-area strip club yielded 15 arrests early Wednesday for prostitution and drug charges and the seizure of several weapons, Houston police said.

As part of a months-long probe, vice officers entered Club Fetish at 3101 Fountainview at Richmond Avenue about 2:45 a.m. and recovered three guns, along with marijuana and a substance that appeared to be cocaine, said Houston Police Department spokesman John Cannon. No one claimed ownership of the guns, which were found on the floor of the club.

Officers also cited the club for serving food and alcohol without the required licenses, and for operating a sexually oriented business without an SOB permit, Cannon said.

The club also tweeted, "FETISH OPEN TONIGHT BUT THAT KITCHEN ......... CLOSED TIL FURTHER NOTICE LOL ! They caught a dirty grill that couldn't be clean while cooking!"

I walked in around noon and saw a sign that read:

Cheeseburger $1.50

Chicken Sandwich $2.50

Hand Job $100

The only person I saw working was a young woman behind the bar. I asked if she was the one who gave the hand jobs. 'Yes, I am,' she replied seductively.

I said, 'well, wash your hands and get me a cheeseburger.'
