A girl's night out quickly turned into a wild brawl at Miz Lola's in North Las Vegas.

"I could have died," said customer Ashley Jackson.

The incident happened on Aug. 4 but the video was just released. In the video, the bartender is seen apparently tossing the girls off the counter three different times. Multiple bar stools and bottles were also thrown.

Jackson said she was forced to defend herself.

"I got a stool and threw it over so he would stop," she said.

Jackson said the trouble began when her friend was dozing off at the bar. The bartender asked the girls to leave.

As she was cashing out, Jackson told him he was rude. That's when, she says, he abruptly snatched her wallet.

"I have no idea why," she said. "He snapped."

Jackson said she climbed onto the counter because he was searching her wallet.

"I was afraid for my life, he might try to get my address, do something later," she said.

Jackson said her gallbladder was ruptured during the incident. She had to have surgery.

"Knowing that someone put their hands on you, it's not a good feeling," she said.

When police initially responded to the scene, Jackson was arrested for battery.

She said the charges were quickly dropped. Now she is planning on taking legal action against the bartender and business.
