Chairs thrown in Sports Page Bar scuffle

Police are searching for a man who allegedly threw chairs at a bartender at the Sports Page Bar last week, and later hit the bartender in the face.

The bartender called police on Aug. 16, shortly before midnight, and said he had told the man to leave the bar after he began yelling at another patron, according to police spokeswoman Katie Nelson. Both men involved in the argument became “aggressive” after they were asked to stop, and one of them allegedly threw bar stools at the bartender.

He later struck the bartender in the face, though the bartender was not injured, Nelson said. The man police are seeking left the bar in what was described as a dark blue car.
