Bowling Green Man Charged with Manslaughter Following Fatal Altercation
A man identified as Jarred Brown, 25, from Glasgow, has been arrested in connection with a physical altercation that resulted in a death. The incident occurred on Saturday, October 20, 2025, in the 100 block of St. Charles Street outside 90 Millas Cuban Bar and Restaurant.
At approximately 3 a.m., multiple patrons flagged down a Bowling Green police officer regarding the violent confrontation. Upon the officer’s arrival, they discovered Anthony Santiago, 32, on the ground suffering from seizures, while Brown’s shirt was noted to be partially ripped.
Santiago was taken to The Medical Center in Bowling Green before being transferred to a trauma center in Nashville for further medical evaluation. A doctor at the hospital assessed Santiago with a possible concussion, a potential brain bleed, and noted he went into cardiac arrest for an extended duration. Tragically, Santiago later died from his injuries, prompting police to escalate the charges against Brown.
Initially, Brown was charged with second-degree assault and alcohol intoxication in a public place. However, following Santiago’s death, police added a charge of first-degree manslaughter against him. Brown admitted to the officer that a confrontation occurred with Santiago, claiming that Santiago approached and punched him, which led to the physical fight. Brown asserted he shoved, slammed Santiago to the ground, and struck him two additional times while he was down. Video evidence corroborated this account, showing Brown slamming Santiago and leaving him limp and defenseless.
Currently, Jarred Brown is being held at the Warren County Regional Jail under a $250,000 cash bond. He was arraigned on the charges and is scheduled for a preliminary hearing the following Friday.
