In Baltimore on Oct. 13, after the Ravens’ game against the Washington Commanders, a guy was arrested on Monday on charges of assaulting fans of the other team.
John Callis, 24, was given an arrest warrant after a video of him hitting two guys in Commander’s jerseys on his cell phone went viral. Police said that the warrant listed charges of first-degree severe assault and second-degree assault.
It wasn’t clear if Callis was freed after being arrested on Monday. Callis’s lawyer did not answer right away to a request for comment Monday night.
The people seen on video were only recognized as men aged 23.
According to the police, Callis was the guy in the video wearing a Ravens jersey and walking in the Federal Hill neighborhood, which is known for its nightlife, sports bars, and historic buildings. He was walking just a few blocks away from M&T Bank Stadium, where the Ravens had just beat the Commanders 30-23.
As shown in the video, the man in the Ravens shirt kicks one of the two men in the Commander’s jersey who are facing him. The Commanders fan is knocked down with a punch, and the other person jumps at the Ravens fan, but is thrown into a brick wall and falls.
The man in the Ravens shirt shouts, “I don’t lose!” as he raises his arm and high-fives someone off camera.
According to court papers obtained by NBC affiliate WBAL of Baltimore, the suspect beat up two of the three victims twice after they went back to the scene to get a cell phone they thought they had lost during the first fight.
The video seemed to show only one of the two supposed meetings.
