British Airways stewardess arrested at 3am in strip club after refusing to pay £40 bar bill

A BRITISH Airways stewardess was nicked by cops at 3am in a strip club after refusing to pay her £40 bar bill during a stopover.

Colleagues were unable to cough up the bail money and so she remained behind bars — with the BA flight returning to Britain without her.

She was accused of being “extremely intoxicated” during a wild night out with a colleague in the Bare Necessity club in Miami, Florida.

The club offers £3 beers and two-for-one shots.

When the woman, in her 20s, was given her bar bill she refused to pay.

Police were called and took her into custody and later released a mugshot of the stewardess in an orange jumpsuit.

A source told The Sun: “She was nicked at the bar with cocktail in hand.”

Last night she was understood to have been released but remains the subject of a police probe in the US.

She and her drinking buddy both face the sack from BA.
