A Texas man faces charges after an assault left a man with serious injuries early Sunday morning.<\/p>\n
Jesus Leyva Jr., 19, of Perryton, Texas, is charged in Buffalo County Court with first-degree assault.<\/p>\n
According to an arrest affidavit, just before 1 a.m. Sunday, Kearney Police were called to Big Apple Fun Center, 500 W. Fourth St., for a report of a man who was lying on the ground by the front door, bleeding from an assault and there was running down the sidewalk.<\/p>\n
When officers arrived on scene, they said they found a large amount of blood on the sidewalk, but did not locate the victim.<\/p>\n
The affidavit said KPD later located the victim at New Victorian Inn and Suites, 903 Second Ave. He was transported to CHI Health-Good Samaritan where doctors said he had multiple orbital fractures, nasal fractures, multiple lacerations and a concussion.<\/p>\n
KPD said officers later obtained cell phone and security video where they determined Leyva Jr. and the victim were involved in a mutual fight where the victim was knocked unconscious. Witnesses told police Leyva Jr. \u201csucker punched\u201d the victim while he was lying unconscious on the ground.<\/p>\n
Leyva Jr. was later located at Tractor Supply, 415 Third Ave., where he was arrested and booked into the Buffalo County Jail.<\/p>\n
On Tuesday, a judge set Leyva Jr.\u2019s bond at $100,000, 10% of which he would need to post to be released from jail. His next court hearing is set for 1:30 p.m. Nov. 18.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"A Texas man faces charges after an assault left a man with serious injuries early Sunday morning.
