HARRISTON TOWNSHIP, Ohio – An Ohio strip club lost its liquor license this week after an investigation by the state Liquor Control Commission found that agents were able to purchase drugs and lap dances with food stamp benefits, according to NBC affiliate WDTN.
The commission started its five-month investigation into the Harrison Township strip club, Sharkey's, in 2017. Agents exchanged $2,404.87 in food stamps for heroin, fentanyl, carfentanil, cocaine, methamphetamines and lap dances, according to WDTN.
