The assault case involving Kenneth Brown and Patrick Bryan II has been dismissed.
The court filing states: "Although probable cause existed to charge the case, this motion is made on the grounds and for the reason that it is in the best interest of justice."
The case was dismissed without prejudice, which means that charges could be re-filed if new information or circumstances arise.
(OCTOBER 2, 2017) Kenneth Brown and Patrick Bryan II have been charged with aggravated assault in Great Falls.
Police officers were dispatched to 525 Central Avenue, which is the Times Square building, at around 10:10 p.m. on Saturday for reports of a group of men fighting.
We have received unconfirmed but credible reports that the two suspects crashed a wedding reception and assaulted two people attending the reception. A responding officer said that he saw two men lying on the floor and one was unconscious.
Witnesses reported that two men – later identified as Brown and Bryan – fled the scene with other young men in a silver four-door sedan with Idaho license plates. Police tracked the car to Brown’s residence, and arrested Brown and Bryan.
Surveillance video shows Brown and Bryan repeatedly stomping and kicking an unconscious man’s head, according to the police report.
Brown and Bryan admitted kicking the man after he was unconscious in recorded interviews with police.
One of the victims was admitted to the ICU and was still unconscious hours after the incident.
We will update you as we get more information.
