A man was attacked and had a bottle smashed on his head by the three-time Super Bowl champion and NFL Network pundit, who was seen on surveillance footage at the posh Delilah restaurant in West Hollywood. A horrifying video, acquired by TMZ Sports, shows Willie McGinest slapping the man in the face and then hitting him in the head with a bottle during the attack at an L.A. hotspot that led to his arrest on Monday.
McGinest may be seen approaching a man who is seated by himself at a table in a TMZ video. Before aggressively attacking him with three friends and knocking him to the ground while onlookers attempted to step in and break up the fight, the former NFL player leaned in and spoke with the man at the table. In addition, McGinest hit the victim in the head with a wine bottle while using it as a weapon.
The altercation persisted for around a minute until McGinest and his friends left the area. The man can be seen talking to someone far away toward the end of the video while cleaning his face with a napkin. A couple of men in suits who appeared to work for the restaurant assisted him in standing up.
The Patriot’s great is detained and charged with assault.
