39-year-old Jason Helstowski had a scuffle with security at Whiskey Row in the early hours of February 5th. When officers arrived, he was wrestling with security and had to be separated for officers to conduct interviews. Whiskey Row staff advised officers they were removing a separate male from the establishment when Helstowski interrupted and began fighting with them. Helstowski told officers he was in an altercation but wouldn’t elaborate further. However, later, Helstowski admitted to jumping in and fighting security to defend his friend, whom he thought was being attacked by them. Helstowski also admitted to being intoxicated during the incident. Helstowski was taken into custody for disorderly conduct.
