The ‘Sexy SWAT’ stripper who caused chaos in Perth’s CBD by carrying a fake assault rifle has been fined.
Chad Satchell, a blasting technician who also runs an adult entertainment business, was on King Street when he pulled a gel gun out of his car while dressing for a performance in front of 50 women at a party bus in 2022.
The 32-year-old claimed he thought the banned weapon was a “replica” and also referred to it as a “toy gun” which he briefly held in his hands.
