4/5/2005

BOWLING GREEN - Bond was set at $25,000 yesterday for a Bowling Green man charged with stabbing a patron of Howard's Club H bar on North Main Street.

Paul J. Maynard, 30, was being held in the Wood County jail on one count of felonious assault. A preliminary hearing in Bowling Green Municipal Court was set for Monday.

Bowling Green police were called to the bar about 7:45 p.m. Friday where Charles J. Brown, 33, of Bowling Green said he had seen some individuals breaking bottles on the pool table and told them they were intoxicated and needed to go home. A fight broke out, and Mr. Brown was stabbed in the back.

He told police he did not know he was stabbed at first but thought he had been punched in the back. He was treated in Wood County Hospital.
