♦ Raymond Joseph Anglin, 40, of the 4700 block of Jack Brown Road was arrested for an alleged assault at the King Tut Café & Hookah Lounge on 220 North Lee Street in Downtown Salisbury on Wednesday night. Anglin, convicted of assaulting both men and women, allegedly was intoxicated when he started swapping punches with his first victim who turned his back and staggered off.
Anglin wanted more as he stalked back into Café at 11:30 p.m. and allegedly started pounding on someone identified as Austin Wood. A looping right hand mashed squarely in Wood’s face and turned the air around his head into a warm red mist. Wood’s legs offered little support. He had no idea why Anglin attacked him.
Anglin swayed and looked on numbly on as Salisbury Police entered the Café. He loudly berated the officers when they arrested and handcuffed him.
Anglin was charged with simple assault (misdemeanor), disorderly conduct (misdemeanor), and intoxicated and disruptive (misdemeanor). Under a secured $4,000 bond, Anglin was locked up in the Rowan County Detention Center before he was released on bond.
