MIDLAND -- A Midland man is behind bars, accused of assaulting people at a bar.
Richard Casias was arrested Tuesday. An arrest affidavit says Casias, 24, hit Ricardo Oliva with a pool cue during a brawl at the "Your Place" bar on December 5th.
According to the report, Casias then took pool balls off the pool table and started throwing them at people. One of the victims -- Alicia Aguirre -- had her teeth knocked out by a pool ball and two others that were hit -- Michelle Aguirre and Manuel Lara -- suffered head injuries.
Casias reportedly took a pool ball outside afterward and hit Jesus Estrada in the head before taking off on his motorcycle. Police say the whole incident was caught on tape.
Casias is charged with aggravated assault with a deadly weapon.
Another suspect -- Darlene Salas -- was arrested in early December. She's charged with stabbing Jesus Estrella during the fight.
