Fox 2 Detroit spoke with the assault victim, who did not want to talk on camera, but did reveal he was on pain pills and suffering from a terrible headache. 

The bar attack happened to take place right next to the town police station, but all of the officers were on patrol at the time of the incident.

The owner of the bar came to the victim's defense, telling the outlet that he 'doesn't cause any problems.'

'The gentleman who’s got the stitches is a really nice kid,' bar owner Mike Wolf said. 

'He doesn’t cause any problems, he's a good kid - and we don’t really know what happened.'

Meanwhile, one patron tried to downplay the incident, claiming it was an 'isolated incident.' 

'It was an isolated incident you go to any bar anywhere in this country and you’re going to have conflict,' the patron said. 

No arrests have been made as of Sunday.
