ATHENS, Ga. -- Police are searching for a stabbing suspect who assaulted a woman at an adult entertainment business in Athens.
Athens-Clarke police said a man stabbed the female worker at Fantasy World after she told him he had to pay a fee for an undisclosed service he asked for.
Police said the man told the woman what he wanted Wednesday night and she took him to a private room where he sat on a couch.
When the woman told him the service required a "room fee," he pulled out a pocket knife, pushed her against a wall and stabbed her in the side.
Police said the woman pushed a panic button and employees ran to help, passing the assailant along the way.
The woman was treated and released at St. Mary's hospital.
