Good Guys Employee Set on Fire by Angry Patron

IT SHOULD BE EXPECTED that if you're in an adult club that features exotic dancers, you shouldn't take photos of the talent. Management might get angry.

At Good Guys on Wisconsin Avenue in Glover Park on Saturday night, a patron was apparently ejected for doing just that, and then later, as The Post's Ernesto Londono and Martin Weil report, he sprayed a flammable liquid on a 26-year-old employee and set him on fire. The suspect is at large and the employee is in the hospital with serious injuries.

  • And once again, the local news reports that this event happened in Georgetown. You shouldn't be too surprised when they clump in less known neighborhoods like Burlieth and the West End into Georgetown, but they can't even bring themselves to say Glover Park! Do they just think that a strip club patron setting fire to an employee isn't eye-catching unless it occurs in Georgetown?
