Dörrvakten Craig Molesphini uttalar sig om händelsen där Renzo Gracie och ytterligare 6 män misstänks för misshandel. Enligt honom var detta en noggrant planerad och samordnad attack på grund av att de nekats inträde till kändiscafét.
Molesphini uttalar sig om händelsen i LA Post:
“In my entire 14-year career, I have never seen anything like this. At 1:30 a.m. a gray van pulled up, parked in the middle of the street, seven men exited the vehicle and started creating mayhem, screaming, pointing, starting to pick fights with the security guards. One man, [who] I later learned was Renzo, came in my direction, threw the velvet rope on the floor, ran straight into my chest and knocked me back onto the concrete floor onto my elbow. He was on top of me for 20 seconds, trying to punch me, but I wrapped both my arms around his neck so he couldn’t hit me, before somebody pulled him off. All of the seven men were fighting, doing MMA moves on the guards, some of whom were injured. When the police arrived, they tried to get away, but the cops parked in front of their van, which was waiting with a driver. Retribution for me not allowing two of their masters into the venue last week. This was a carefully planned and coordinated attack. The police arrested all seven of them.”
Renzo Grazie släpptes mot borgen tidigare i veckan.
Molesphini anser att de som utfört attacken kommer att ställas inför rätta:
