Mike Tyson Arrested in B'klyn Brawl
June 21, 2003, 10:20 AM EDT
Boxer Mike Tyson has been arrested after being involved in a brawl with two other men outside a Brooklyn Marriott early today, police said.
The former heavyweight champ was charged with third-degree assault and disorderly conduct after tangling with two other men, police said.
The men, who were not immediately identified, reportedly used an object from the hotel's lobby to hit Tyson. The men were charged with menacing and disorderly conduct. No further details were avaiable on the object.
Tyson, 36, was treated for minor injuries. He was being held at the 84th Precinct in Brooklyn and it was not known when he will be arraigned.
The brawl erupted at about 5:30 a.m. outside the Marriott hotel on Adams Street in Brooklyn when the men exchanged words with Tyson. Poice said they are investigating what triggered the fight.
An unidentifed woman also was reportedly injured in the fight and was being treated at Bellevue Hospital Center in Manhattan, police said.
Tyson was convicted of rape in 1992 and was sentenced to six years in prison. He served three years before being released on parole.
In a Fox television interview last month, Tyson said he was so angry about the conviction that he wanted to rape his accuser, former beauty pageant contestant Desiree Washington, and her mother.
In 1997, he bit a chunk off Evander Holyfield's ear during a boxing match. Tyson's Nevada boxing license was suspended for a year, and he was fined $3 million.
And just last year, he threw a punch at Lennox Lewis' bodyguard at a news conference announcing an upcoming fight bewteen the two, setting off a brawl between Tyson and Lewis.
