SILVERDALE, Wash. — This is one 21st birthday to forget.
A 21-year-old man stationed at Naval Base Kitsap-Bangor has been arrested after getting into multiple altercations on what one of his friends told law enforcement was the man's 21st birthday.
The man was kicked out of the Old Town Bistro early Saturday morning, the first in a series of events. The Kitsap Sun reports about 12:15 a.m. a witness said the man approached him and started a conversation. The man said he was in the Marines, while the witness replied he was in the Navy.
The suspect shook his hand then punched him in the face saying, "I ... hate the Navy."
Two security guards tried to subdue the suspect, but one was kicked in the groin. A Washington State Patrol trooper and Kitsap County Sheriff's deputy eventually got the man under control and transported him to U.S. Naval Base Police at Bangor.
