Bar worker suing Manziel, claiming broken nose

Former Cleveland Browns and Texas A&M quarterback Johnny Manziel is being sued by a bar employee who says his nose was broken when Manziel punched him.

The lawsuit, filed Monday by Eric Newton in Travis County, Texas, seeks up to $1 million in damages for the incident that allegedly occurred at an Austin bar where Manziel was attending a private party.

The lawsuit was first reported by the Facebook site Texas Our Texas.

Newton claims in the suit that Manziel wanted Newton to make drinks, but that Newton told him his role as a bartending assistant did not permit him to do so.
