Police Seek Suspect Accused of Assaulting Dancers at Bloomington Strip Club

Staff report

Bloomington, Ind. — July 30, 2025 — Police are searching for a man accused of assaulting three dancers during separate incidents early Tuesday morning at Night Moves, a strip club located in Bloomington.

According to Bloomington Police Department Captain Ryan Pedigo, officers responded around 1:20 a.m. on July 29 after a member of the club’s security team called the police to report multiple assaults.

The suspect is alleged to have choked two 21-year-old dancers during private sessions. One of the dancers told police she was grabbed around the throat six or seven times, though her airway was not blocked. She said she ended the dance after the man continued to grab her in what she described as an unsafe manner.

Shortly afterward, the suspect allegedly assaulted a second 21-year-old dancer by grabbing her neck three times—at least once forcefully enough to restrict her breathing. Police say the man did not pay the dancer, who is owed approximately $200.

After leaving that session, the man reportedly approached a 20-year-old employee and inquired about another private dance. When she told him he needed to pay full price or leave the club, the suspect allegedly grabbed her buttocks inappropriately.

The man then fled the scene on foot heading northbound. Police were unable to locate him despite a search of the area. The case remains under active investigation.

Anyone with information is urged to contact the Bloomington Police Department.
