Lincoln Police say one man ended up in the hospital and another is being sought after a fight early Saturday morning. Public Information Officer Erika Thomas says officers were called to Barry’s Bar at 9th and ‘Q’ around 1:00 a.m. to investigate an assault.
“Officers located a 28-year-old Lincoln man unconscious in front of the bar,” Thomas says. “Witnesses told police the victim had been punched and fell to the ground.” Thomas says the altercation stemmed from an argument between the victim and another man about wanting to get back into the bar after having been escorted outside.
The suspect left the area before police arrived. The injured man was taken to the hospital where he was admitted for a brain bleed. The investigation is ongoing.
