Not only did he assault the victim in the video, he also assaulted a witness who attempted to stop him on his way out the door.
Officers stated that the witness ''sustained bruises to his face''.
Madison Square Gardens made a huge statement today by banning this man for life from attending any events at MSG.
Last night, an abhorrent assault took place against a Tampa Bay fan at the conclusion of the game - followed by a second assault against an individual who bravely intervened.
First, we ensured the victims received appropriate medical care and have followed up to provide support from our guest services team. Equally important, we are cooperating fully with law enforcement as this is now a criminal matter. The assailant will also be banned from the Garden and all other MSG venues for life.
All guests - no matter what team they support - should feel safe and respected in The Garden. This has and always will be our policy.
