A Keizer man was arrested Saturday after he reportedly assaulted two women in downtown Corvallis.

According to information from the Corvallis Police Department, at 1:47 a.m., Austin Jade Myers, 21, was arguing with Ashley Blochowski, 21, of Keizer at the Peacock Bar & Grill at 125 S.W. Second St.

The argument continued as the two moved to the parking lot at Madison Avenue and Southwest First Street. Another woman, Chelsy Brock, 22, of Keizer, followed them and tried to break up the fight.

As Brock was standing between the two, Myers punched her in the face, causing Brock to stumble and break her ankle, police said. Myers then punched her again, and she briefly lost consciousness.

Myers then reportedly turned his attention to Blochowski, grabbing her hair and throwing her against a parked vehicle. Blochowski fell to the ground and Myers held her by her throat and punched her in the face, police said.

A Peacock staff member alerted bouncers to the situation, and they ran outside to help.

"We got out there, and there was a girl sitting on the ground, obviously (with) a severe injury on her face," said Jesse Keller, a Peacock bouncer.

Another bouncer, Scott Sullivan, already had pulled Myers away from the women.

Then, according to Keller, Myers said, "‘I'm not going back to jail,' and he took off running."

He didn't get far, as Sullivan and Keller chased him down. Sullivan tackled Myers outside of Aqua Seafood, and he and Keller detained Myers for a few minutes, until police arrived and arrested him.

Further information on the condition of Brock and Blochowski was not available.

Myers was arraigned Monday in Benton County Circuit Court and entered not guilty pleas to charges of second-degree assault, two counts of fourth-degree assault and reckless endangering.

He is in Benton County jail. His bail was set at $112,000.
