Second man jailed in parking lot fight
A second man was placed in Washington County jail in connection with a Tuesday night fight in the parking lot of a Washington tavern.
Marquis D. Brown, 24, of 39 Shannon Ave., Washington, was arrested Wednesday after allegedly running from an officer. Police said he dropped a bag containing a small amount of marijuana before being located near 17 W. Chestnut St.
Brown was sought by Washington police in connection with a fight outside Luxury Box sports bar, 427 E. Maiden St., Tuesday in which he allegedly took a gun that was placed on the ground by Brandon Allen, 25, of 262 E. Hallam Ave., who was involved in a fight with another man.
Allen was placed in jail on a parole violation after the incident and faces charges in connection with the fight.
Brown faces charges of burglary, aggravated assault and drug possession and two counts of reckless endangerment, flight to avoid apprehension and disorderly conduct. He was arraigned by District Judge Larry Hopkins Thursday and placed in jail on $25,000 bond.
