The final member of the Pagans Motorcycle Club who was offered a plea agreement in connection with an assault at the Charleroi Slovak Club in April has accepted the deal.

Jason Huff, 40, of Plum pleaded guilty to aggravated assault and conspiracy to commit aggravated assault. 

Huff was sentenced by Washington County Court of Common Pleas Judge John DiSalle to four to eight years on each count to run consecutively, for a total sentence of eight to 16 years.

Huff was one of seven members of the Pagans seen on surveillance camera entering the Slovak Club April 18. The video shows Huff hitting former Pagan Troy Harris, knocking him from his barstool onto the ground, where he was stomped and kicked repeatedly. 

Harris was left with traumatic brain injury among other injuries.
