CAUGHT ON TAPE: MANAGER OF BAR IN GOOSE CREEK SC LOCKS DOWN BAR & ORDERS BEATDOWN OF CUSTOMER
Authorities have released surveillance video from a Goose Creek tavern showing a bouncer using a pool stick to strike a man in the back of the head. In the newly released video, a bouncer at the Two Keys Tavern on College Park Road can be seen grabbing a pool stick, breaking it in half then striking a patron in the back of the head. The video shows the bouncer then chasing another person around the tavern. The Goose Creek Police Department arrested 41-year-old Gary Long, 30-year-old Golden Deleon and 35-year-old Tim Lawhorn in connection to the alleged assault and kidnapping at the tavern. According to police warrants, on April 21, Long, the manager of the tavern at the time, was attempting to collect bets from gambling that was taking place on pool games. Police say Long then ordered bouncers to lock down the business and not allow anyone to leave. Warrants state that Long gave Lawhorn, a bouncer at the tavern, the "green light" to assault a man. Police say Lawhorn then hit the man with a pool stick and held him down while Deleon, another bouncer, forcibly removed the victim's cell phone and money. All three men were charged with six counts of kidnapping and two counts of armed robbery with a deadly weapon. Long and Lawhorn were also each charged with two counts of first-degree assault and battery.
