A metro area mayor, who works as a bouncer at a strip club, got caught up in a police sting over the weekend.
Federal Heights Mayor Dale Sparks says he has worked as a doorman at Bare Essence for the past year.
Sparks says he was caught by surprise when cops raided the club Saturday night. He says officials are investigating possible prostitution and code violations.
“Under no circumstances was I ever aware that any of this was taking place,” Sparks says. “I certainly didn’t turn the other cheek and knowingly didn’t report any of this stuff. I didn’t know it was happening.”
The mayor was questioned during the police raid.Sparks has been the mayor of Federal Heights for seven years. He says he never made working at Bare Essence a secret. He had been working there three days a week, but says he won’t return until the case is cleared.

Former Federal Heights Mayor Sharon Richardson had made getting rid of the Bare Essence nude gentlemen’s club a pillar of her office back in 2000.
