Cal quarterback Steve Levy pleaded not guilty Thursday to felony assault charges stemming from an incident in which he allegedly threw a pint glass at a bouncer's face. A San Francisco Superior Court judge also ordered Levy not to go within 150 yards of the bar and bouncer, Bryan Zahn, who suffered a cut to his head during the fight early Sunday, according to police. Levy, 22, was arrested outside Kells Irish Restaurant and Pub, where he allegedly threw the glass at Zahn, who had asked him to leave the bar after breaking up an argument between Levy and another patron, said police spokesman Sgt. Neville Gittens. Levy then reportedly tried to leave the scene but was detained by people on the street until officers arrived. Levy, who was released on $40,000 bail, was scheduled to return to court July 18 for a pre-hearing conference.
Herb Benenson, spokesman for Cal's athletic department, said Thursday that Levy remains suspended indefinitely from all team activities until officials gather more information. Levy's attorney, Mary P. Carey, did not return a call for comment.
