A Twentynine Palms man was arrested early Saturday morning after he beat up a man at Club Vo at the corner of Two Mile Road and Adobe Road. According to Sheriff’s Sergeant Jason Radeleff, the two men had left the bar about 1:30 Saturday morning and were waiting at the bus stop when they got into an argument. Derek Williams, 24, pushed the other man, then picked him up and slammed him to the ground. Williams then kneeled on top of the victim and started punching him in the face. A Sheriff’s deputy had just pulled up and the deputy was able to pull Williams off the victim. Derek Williams was arrested for assault with serious injuries, booked into the Morongo Basin Jail with his bail set at $100,000. The victim was taken to the Naval Hospital aboard the Marine Base with lacerations and bruises to his head and face.
