So bumping into somebody is assault? Happens ten thousand times a day.
Difference is 9999 people dont flop down
Not really a bump though was it? It was deliberate, unwanted contact, that resulted in the victim being pushed down. Although discretion is often applied by the police (as a previous poster mentioned), there is no question this meets the legal definition of assault. Look it up if you don't believe me.
Not predicting it, but It would not be a surprise to see a 1-2 game suspension result from this- especially given history.
Regardless, it's
mindbogglingly stupid- especially after serving a 6 game suspension already.
Most folks can manage to attend a concert without ending up in handcuffs.
