NEW YORK (AP) — Police have made an arrest in connection with the death of a man found unconscious in front of a New York City bar that appears in the TV reality series "Mob Wives."

Police say Stephan Fasano was arrested on charges of manslaughter, recklessly causing the death of a person and assault. He's in custody and can't be reached for comment. It's unclear if he has a lawyer.

Police say Abdou Cisse was discovered unconscious early Sunday at the Drunken Monkey Bar & Grill on Staten Island. He had suffered severe head trauma and was pronounced dead at the scene.

Cisse apparently had been trying to help the bouncer remove unruly patrons when he was punched in the face and knocked to the ground.

Drunken Monkey is home turf to "Mob Wives" star Angela "Big Ang" Raiola.
