A suspect has been identified in last Sunday’s downtown bar fight and police are asking for help finding him, according to a press release from the city of Clemson Police.
Police say their suspect is Julian Tristen Mackenzi Garren, a 23-year-old male, who has been charged with one count of assault and battery, second degree.
Anyone with information regarding his whereabouts is asked to contact Detective Chancellor of the city of Clemson Police at (864) 624-2014.
Around 10 p.m. last Sunday night, while two men were playing pool, a verbal altercation escalated into one man striking a beer bottle on another man’s head upstairs at Tiger Town Tavern.
“The victim’s injuries were severe but is now recovering at home,” reads a police press release.
The men knew each other, and the injured man checked the suspect into the membership-only space above the bar, according to Parish.
The paramedics on the scene determined that the man was unconscious and nonresponsive, according to Rick Cramer, fire chief for CUFD.
Paramedics for Pickens County EMS then decided it was necessary to call in a helicopter to fly the man to Greenville.
A Prisma Health LifeNet helicopter soon landed on Bowman Field, transporting the unconscious man to Greenville Memorial Hospital Trauma Center, according to Flightradar24.
This is a developing story. The Tiger will provide updates with additional information as it becomes available.
