2 men wounded in Kilroy’s bar brawl Wednesday

Victims struck with bottles, one received 20 stitches

Bloomington police are investigating a fight at Kilroy’s Bar ‘N’ Grill that left two men wounded. One of the men received 20 stitches on his face, according to police reports. \nOfficers responded around 12:15 Wednesday morning to the 500 block of Kirkwood Avenue where two men had been struck in the head with glass bottles. \nEzra D. Douglas, 28, has already been charged with battery, and police are searching for another man who fled before they arrived, said BPD Sgt. Jeff Canada. \nAccording to police reports, Douglas was throwing things and calling names at a group of friends playing a game. \nThe victim confronted Douglas and, after the parties separated, Douglas hit him in the head with a bottle. \nThen, an unidentified person hit Douglas with a bottle, Canada said. \nThe victim received 20 stitches to his face and had a possible broken nose, while Douglas had a large laceration above his left eye and down his cheek. It is not known how many stitches Douglas received, Canada said. \nReports indicate Douglas was taken to jail after being cleared by Bloomington Hospital. \nPolice reviewed footage of the fight from surveillance cameras and hoped to determine the identity of the second suspect who hit Douglas, Canada said.
