Two Chicago men were arrested after getting into a fight Jan. 11 with a bouncer at a downtown Tinley Park tavern, police said.

Steven K. Hanley, 27, was charged with assault, and Ryan T. Hanley, 29, was charged with battery and resisting police in the disturbance at Teehan’s Tavern, 17329 Oak Park Ave., according to police.

They said officers arrived at the bar about 12:35 a.m. to find the bouncer, a 24-year-old Orland Hills man, on the ground and the Hanleys shirtless and screaming at police.

The bouncer told police that the two men arrived at the bar about 11:30 p.m., started to fight each other and he broke it up and told them to leave. Once outside, Steven Hanley asked to re-enter the bar to get his coat, but the bouncer told him to stay outside and he would get the coat for him, police said.

Ryan Hanley then became angry, started screaming at the bouncer, raised his fists and came after him — causing the two to begin wrestling with each other shortly before police arrived, according to police.
