Johnny Manziel broke Austin bar employee's nose, lawsuit alleges
Johnny Manziel is accused of breaking an Austin bar employee's nose in September, according to a lawsuit filed Monday.
Eric Newton sued the former Texas A&M and Cleveland Browns quarterback in a Travis County district court.
The suit, which Texas Our Texas reported on Facebook, seeks damages of $200,000 to $1 million.
Newton was working Sept. 6 at the New York New York bar on East Sixth Street on a night that Manziel was attending a private party, the suit alleges. It says Manziel "demanded" Newton, who works as a bar-back, make several drinks. Bar-backs assist bartenders but generally don't make drinks.
