Kansas University men’s basketball point guard Aaron Miles appeared on the police blotter Thursday after helping break up a fight between two women outside Johnny’s Tavern, 401 N. Second St., police said.
Miles was listed as a witness in the case. Sgt. Dan Ward, a Lawrence Police spokesman, said a 27-year-old woman had been arguing with a 23-year-old woman as they left the bar. Outside, after the 27-year-old recognized Miles and began talking with him, the other woman came up behind her and struck her on the head, Ward said.
Police were on routine patrol when they came upon the incident and found Miles separating the two women, Ward said.
The 23-year-old was issued notices to appear in municipal court.
