Strip Club May Shutter Following NJ Teen Assault, Death

PLEASANTVILLE, NJ — A march is planned Wednesday in support of Irving Mayren-Guzman, the 19-year-old who was found dead last month after spending a night at a Pleasantville strip club.

According to Pleasantville police, the march will start at Centerfolds Cabaret AC and end at the Pleasantville Police Department. The march is planned ahead of a city public safety committee meeting, during which members will consider revoking Centerfolds' mercantile license.

Guzman, whom police say was assaulted before he disappeared, was at the club the night of Jan. 22. Pleasantville Police found that Centerfolds staff served him alcohol, according to NJ.com.

Three men have been arrested and charged with assault in connection with Mayren-Guzman's death.

The club shut its doors in late January; originally, Pleasantville's mayor said the club chose to close but city documents indicate the club's license has been temporarily suspended, NJ.com reported. Its Facebook page and website are now offline.

A spokesperson for the Guzman family said the march will be peaceful and is expected to draw about 1,000 participants.

Police said residents can expect traffic delays in the areas of Delilah Road, Franklin Boulevard and North Main Street.
