Two Dubuque men have been sentenced to two years of probation for an assault that left another man unconscious. 23 year old Phillip Stanley and 21 year old Brett Bisping were both given the sentence in the Iowa District Court of Dubuque County after each entered a guilty plea to a charge of assault causing bodily injury. As part of their sentences, both men have to comply with a no-contact order issued for 42 year old Denona Ward Jr. of Dubuque. A report says that Stanley and Bisping assaulted Ward on August 3rd in the parking lot of Liquor Tobacco & Gas on Central Avenue. Traffic camera footage showed Bisping punching Ward and Stanley stomping or kicking Ward in the head and neck area. The assault left Ward lying unconscious in the parking lot.
