NIAGARA FALLS — A closing-time melee early Sunday in Bragg’s Tavern on Ferry Avenue left one man with his head sliced open by a beer bottle and another stabbed twice with a knife.

Police said that shortly after 3 a. m., several men began fighting as they left the tavern. A 33-year-old man from Swann Road, Youngstown, was smacked over the head with a beer bottle, causing a large gash to his forehead. A 44-year-old Cayuga Village resident sustained puncture wounds to the side and back.

Witnesses told police that the same man assaulted both victims, but he fled before police arrived. Both victims were intoxicated and uncooperative, police said, and were taken to Niagara Falls Memorial Medical Center for treatment.
