Violence continues to rage at boro clubs Five arrested as cops respond to three clubs on reports of fighting BY MICHAEL ACKER Staff Writer Police made five arrests after responding to several violent incidents at Sayreville bars and clubs between Thursday and Sunday. The reports of violence, at Bourbon Street, Primetime Sports Bar & Billiards Cafe and the Colosseum nightclub, come at a time when borough officials have been vocal about curtailing violence at clubs. Republican Mayor Kennedy O'Brien last month proposed a "three strikes" policy, though no further action has been taken. O'Brien's proposal followed three incidents at the Colosseum during November and December, including the Nov. 22 shooting of a Shrewsbury man and the alleged assault of a dancer on that same night. After a few weeks without incidents, borough police responded to two assaults at different bars and a large fracas reported outside a third club last week. Arrests at go-go bar A fight involving up to 30 people, some with baseball bats, prompted numerous police officers to respond to Bourbon Street, an adult entertainment club on Route 9, at 1:59 a.m. Thursday. All Sayreville police units, as well as three units from South Amboy and eight from Old Bridge were dispatched. Bar employees advised police that the perpetrators had fled the scene, and the fighting was over by the time they arrived. Sayreville Police Sgt. Dominic Castlegrant, one of the responding officers, said that police cleared the bar and the parking lot of all non-employees. He noted that police are not dispatched to Bourbon Street often. "We are occasionally dispatched [there]," he said, "but they are pretty good up there." Police did not find any suspects at the strip club, but they did make arrests around 2:20 a.m. at Concord Square, where another altercation was reported to authorities. Police said the suspects may have been involved in the Bourbon Street fight. Police charged David W. Allan, 24, of Union Beach, with several counts of possession of a weapon and possession of a weapon for an unlawful purpose. Robert C. Conway, 23, of Sayreville, was charged with possession of a controlled dangerous substance, and other charges. Police also charged Dennis J. Miseje, 26, of Keyport, with several counts of unlawful possession of a weapon and possession of a weapon for an unlawful purpose. Manuel S. Kay, 26, of South Amboy, was charged with possession of a large capacity ammunition magazine, several counts of possession of a weapon for an unlawful purpose and unlawful possession of a weapon. Patrolmen Louis Becker, Steve Gulick and Thomas Pavlik were dispatched to Concord Square, where they found the four suspects standing by two vehicles with the taillights on. Pavlik reported that when police arrived, Conway threw an aluminum bat under his 2000 Chevy Impala, while Miseje and Kay began to walk towards a 2002 Acura RL. Pavlik instructed the four men to stop and sit on the curb, and the four men complied. Police handcuffed and searched them for weapons, and reportedly found a small bag of marijuana and three small bags of cocaine on Conway. Police recovered guns, ammunition and baseball bats in the Acura, which Miseje drove. Castlegrant said police recovered a .38 caliber Rossi revolver loaded with hollow point ammunition and a Tec 9 semiautomatic assault weapon with a pistol grip and a magazine loaded with 9-millimeter ammunition. The men were taken to Sayreville police headquarters, where they were processed. Police also impounded the suspects' vehicles. Patron assaulted outside bar Police were dispatched to Primetime, on Route 9, at 2:21 a.m. Saturday for a report of aggravated assault. A group of three or four men allegedly assaulted a single victim in the parking lot. Police said officers arrived to find the victim with blood on his face, head, hands and clothing. The victim had a 3- to 4-inch laceration on the front of his head. An expandable baton is believed to have been used to strike the victim, according to police reports. The incident occurred while the victim was outside smoking a cigarette. One of the suspects asked the victim for a cigarette before jumping him, according to the report. The assailants reportedly fled on foot behind the sports bar. The victim declined a transport to the hospital. Bouncers assaulted at club A Staten Island man is accused of assaulting two bouncers in the parking lot of the Colosseum, Routes 9 and 35. After responding to a call at the club at 1:10 a.m. Sunday, police charged Javon Dale, 23, with aggravated assault, possession of a weapon and resisting arrest. Several bouncers had attempted to restrain Dale in the parking lot after he was allegedly involved in a heated verbal altercation with an unknown female. One of the bouncers told police that he attempted to help restrain Dale, but that the suspect bit him twice, once in the stomach and once on the left side of his face, close to his nose. The second bouncer that Dale reportedly assaulted told police that Dale became violent when the bouncers attempted to intervene in his altercation with the unknown woman. The bouncers let Dale off the ground when he appeared to be calm, but Dale then took out a pen and slashed one of the bouncers across the face with it. Police reported that this bouncer had a cut from the corner of his left eye across his left cheek to the back of his neck. Both bouncers refused medical attention from the Morgan First Aid Squad. Dale was processed at Sayreville police headquarters. He was charged with two counts of aggravated assault, one count of possession of a weapon for an unlawful purpose and one count of resisting arrest. His bail was set at $250,000 with no 10 percent option. He was also transported to Raritan Bay Medical Center, where he was checked for several lacerations sustained in his scuffle with club security. This is not the first report of club security being assaulted at the Colosseum. A bouncer was reportedly knocked unconscious after being struck on the side of his head inside the club during a fracas involving about 80 people in the parking lot on Dec. 28.
