Tampa police say security guards stopped an armed man who was wearing a devil mask and carrying a gun from entering the Mons Venus strip club and could have potentially saved dozens of lives.

The tense security camera footage shows the moment the man wearing the mask attempted to enter a local gentlemen's club in Florida, but one of the bouncers spots the firearm he is carrying which would wind up on the ground and in the hands of one of the bouncers after a brief scuffle. This man's keen eye and quick reflexes almost certainly prevented another mass shooting.
