Milwaukee gas station faces possible closure over porn video filmed in snack aisle

MILWAUKEE (WITI) -- A Milwaukee gas station is fighting to keep its business license after an amateur porn star recorded a sex video in the snack aisle.

A FOX6 investigation finds the man who shot - and participated in - the video makes money by making sex videos in public places all over the Milwaukee area.

For decades, there's been a gas station at the corner of 35th Street and Townsend in Milwaukee's Roosevelt Grove neighborhood. If Milwaukee District 7 Alderman Khalif Rainey gets his way, it won't be there for long.

In July 2018, a convicted felon turned the gas station into a porn set while the business was open. The video shows Frederick Allen, an aspiring rapper and amateur porn model, having sex in the center aisle.

Allen is known among his online fans for explicit acts in public places, from shopping malls to movie theaters, public streets even public parks - including Milwaukee's Swing Park. He's made sex videos in fast-food parking lots, inside hospital rooms, on top of car hoods and city rooftops.

His exploits have gotten him in trouble before. In 2017, police identified a 15-year-old girl in one of his videos. The charge was later dropped.

The video shows gas station owner Kulwant Dhillon watching the sex act from behind the glass. Dhillon says he was afraid to call police because Allen had threatened him, a claim Allen denies.

As Allen engages in an explicit sex act on the floor of the convenience store, Kulwant Dhillon - the gas station owner - can be seen standing behind the glass, watching. One of his employees is also there, recording the sex act with a cell phone.

Allen says this isn't even the first pornographic video he recorded at the gas station. In March 2015, Allen uploaded a sex video to a website called World Star. It's cell phone video of Allen having intercourse with a woman up against the beverage coolers at the back of the 35th Hometown gas station. That video has more than 2-and-a-half million hits.

As it stands, the 35th Hometown gas station will remain in operation while its parent company, Kool Petroleum, sues the city over its business license. The next hearing is set for April 2, 2020, in Milwaukee County Circuit Court.
