A man going to talk to his wife at a World of Beer in The Villages was greeted with a punch in the face by another man at the bar.
The man said he had gone on Friday night to World of Beer at Brownwood Paddock Square to talk to his wife, who was sitting at the bar with 38-year-old Robert John Hamilton Santiago, of Ocala, according to an arrest report from the Wildwood Police Department. As the man approached the bar, Hamilton Santiago punched him in the face. Video surveillance confirmed that Hamilton Santiago “struck the victim with his right hand in a closed fist on the right side of the victim’s face,” the arrest report said.
Hamilton Santiago was arrested on a misdemeanor charge of battery. He was booked at the Sumter County Detention Center and released after posting $500 bond.
