Michael Ireland [pictured] needed surgery after stripper Sakeena “Suki” Shageer’s kick left him with eye injuries and a broken nose.

The 35-year-old said he was struck “suddenly and without warning” while watching the strip show.

However, bosses at the Cheetah nightclub, in West Palm Beach, Florida, said the customer was kicked after violently slapping the girl’s behind.

Club manager Rod Kimbrough said: “A patron violently slapped the young woman on her buttocks and she was walking around the top of the bar and I guess out of a natural response she turned around and kicked him.

“She’s a very nice, young, small girl, definitely did nothing in a malice way.”

The case is just one of many recent strip club lawsuits that have hit the US headlines.

One Florida man sued after a stripper’s stiletto flew off during a pole dance, shattering a mirror and cutting his face.

And in another case, a New Yorker took legal action after a woman swivelled and smacked him in the face with her shoe during a steamy lap dance.
