A Daytona Beach strip club manager and three employees, including a former Flagler County deputy, were charged with beating a Nebraska man and taking some of his jewelry earlier this month inside the Volusia County establishment, police said.
The Daytona Beach Police Department released surveillance video from inside Lollipops Gentleman's Club, located at 643 N. Grandview Ave.
The video shows bouncers punching 55-year-old Thomas Volz, from Omaha, Nebraska, during the early morning hours of Oct. 4. The timestamp on the video surveillance is 2:31 a.m.
According to a police report, Volz walked into the club, ordered a drink and claims he turned down a dancer who asked him if he wanted a lap dance.
Volz was then approached by a bouncer, the report states. The bouncer, according to the report, told Volz that if he wasn't going to talk to the woman anymore, he owed her $200.
Volz refused to pay, the report states.
The man then told police that bouncers beat him, stole his gold chains and bracelets and even took the batteries out of his cell phone.
The report states Volz was found outside Lollipops "staggering and bleeding."
Former Flagler County deputy Michael Kramer, 35, as well as manager Joseph Victorelli, 47, and bouncer Brent Rose, 42, were charged with robbery. A third employee, Jermine Riley, 40, was charged with robbery with a firearm.
Kramer was an employee of the Flagler County Sheriff's Office for less than one year, according to Cmdr. Robert Weber, of the Flagler County Sheriff's Office.
"(He) was terminated as a result of his failure to successfully complete the agency's Field Training Program," Weber wrote in an email.
