Woman accused of tending bar in the buff

ALTON -- It's a different take on belly up to the bar.

A 24-year-old female bartender in the Mississippi River community of Alton is charged with misdemeanor lewd entertainment after apparently working in the buff.

Police arrested Jamie Day last Friday at the Pub Room after someone called to complain.

Authorities say Day had managed to put on a shirt before officers arrived.

It's not the first time it's happened in that area.

Last month in nearby Jersey County, a 33-year-old bartender at The Cabin Incorporated in Delhi was charged with public indecency after sheriff's deputies found her working nude.

That county's liquor regulators subsequently suspended the tavern's liquor license for 30 days and fined its owner $500.
