Things got out of hand at a North Miami Beach strip club Monday night, when a recently fired dancer took a seven-foot metal pole and used it as a weapon, according to police. Officers say the 23-year-old returned to the adult venue to retrieve her items, then escalated the conflict by reportedly threatening a security staffer with a pole before fleeing the scene. She was apprehended on the westbound ramp of State Road 826 and arrested on many offenses, including aggravated battery and aggravated assault with a deadly weapon.
According to the arrest report acquired by Local 10, staff at Taboo Miami informed authorities that the lady had just been dismissed when she began racing through the club, tossing stuff around and shouting profanities until she was led away. According to the complaint, she returned with a seven-foot metal stick and “nearly” hit a security guard, who later told police he feared for his life. According to Miami-Dade Corrections records, the incident resulted in seven charges, including aggravated battery, aggravated assault with a deadly weapon, providing a false name, and resisting arrest without violence.
North Miami Beach detectives say they apprehended the lady just after 11:50 p.m., putting her into custody near the State Road 826 ramp following a brief chase. NBC 6 named the suspect as Princess Aaliyah Bell, 23, and stated that during her initial court appearance, a judge set her bond at $13,500 and ordered a public lawyer to represent her. The station also reported that Bell has an out-of-state fugitive warrant from Georgia as well as a separate Florida warrant. According to NBC 6, she was examined by medical staff before being taken into county jail.
Taboo Miami by G5ive lists its North Miami Beach location at 337 NW 170th St., as shown on company brochures. The club advertises itself as an adults-only nightclub, with regular weekly events and reservation and contact information available on their website. According to the arrest report acquired by Local 10, management informed authorities that Bell was let back inside to gather her items before things became confrontational.
Aggravated assault in Florida is defined as an assault with a dangerous weapon and is classified as a third-degree felony. Aggravated battery, which includes the use of a lethal weapon, is a second-degree crime under state law. That structure allows prosecutors to pursue felony counts that could result in prison time if Bell is convicted, with any sentence determined by the final charges, the facts of the case, and the court’s conclusions. The Florida Statutes and Florida Statutes are comprehensive collections of state statutes.
Detectives are continue working on the case as Miami-Dade prosecutors analyze the file and cooperate with the courts over Bell’s outstanding warrants, according to NBC 6. The judge’s bond decision and the appointment of a public attorney were handled during Bell’s initial appearance, with future court hearings likely to set the schedule for evidence exchange and any potential plea bargaining. The case is still open, according to authorities, and will be heard in Miami-Dade County court in the coming weeks.
