(July 30) -- The creators of "Hunting for Bambi" are in hot water with the mayor of Las Vegas. The game to hunt naked women with paintball guns has been called a hoax. Now, the mayor says the business--if it is real--may constitute an unlicensed escort service.
After an investigation by the city attorney's office, Mayor Oscar Goodman said it was all a front for an escort service: “We're going to draw the line. We’re not going to let anyone assault and batter women and we're not going to let people proceed unlicensed with escort services.”
The city filed a complaint with the man who operated the business, Michael Burdick, for not having a business license.
And Mayor Goodman wants Burdick's girlfriend's license to sell the videos taken away.
Meanwhile, Burdick told Channel Eight he has stopped the paintball game, but is still selling videos.
