Paz pleads not guilty to scuffle at bar

Boxer facing two misdemeanor charges

WARWICK, R.I. (WPRI) -- Local boxing legend Vinny Paz was arraigned Monday morning following a recent incident at a Warwick bar.

Paz allegedly refused to pay a $23 bar tab at the Grid Iron Ale House and Grill.

Witnesses say he also smashed two bar stools while fighting with a bartender.

Paz pleaded not guilty to charges of vandalism and disorderly conduct.

The arraignment comes only a few months after the former world champion was arrested for allegedly fighting two women outside of a bar on Federal Hill.

Paz was sentenced to community service in September after pleading no contest to that charge.
