Police carrying arrest warrants for three suspected drug dealers raided Chicas Locas, a west Arlington strip club, Thursday night, shutting down the club as they worked to identify more than 60 customers and employees, police said.

Starting about 8 p.m., officers allowed no one in or out of the club as they sought to serve the warrants, police Lt. Jerry Hataway said.

Investigators think the suspects are employees of the club and sold drugs there.

Chicas Locas is in the 3400 block of West Division street. Multiple arrests were expected, Hataway said. The warrants were the result of a months-long investigation, according to authorities.
