SAN ANTONIO (KABB) - Police shut down a strip club in Houston that tried to reopen at 12 a.m. on Friday.

The owner of Club Onyx told arriving officers that the establishment is a restaurant with entertainers and he is allowed to be open under the state’s executive order.

The Houston Police Department disagreed and said the club must shut down.

The club’s owner told Houston media outlet KTRK that he was not offering any lap dancing and the entertainers wore masks.

Still, officials threatened to press charges against the owner if he didn’t close. He told KTRK is not happy with the decision.
