An Illinois man faces charges that he injured an Iowa City bouncer during a Saturday night bar fight.

Iowa City Police were called to the Sports Column on South Dubuque Street just before 10:45pm for a male fighting bouncers. An investigation determined that 57-year-old Kim Young of Woodridge, Illinois had been asked to leave the bar, but refused. Young allegedly punched a bouncer who was trying to get him out the door. Other bouncers stepped in, but Young reportedly picked one up and slammed him to the ground. Police say Young also bit a bouncer in the chest, leaving a mark.

Young is charged with Assault Causing Bodily Injury and Disorderly Conduct. If convicted, he faces a maximum of 13 months in jail.
