Mark Sanchez Sacked by Fox After Stabbing Incident Led to a Felony Charge
"Sanchez, 38, was arrested in Indianapolis last month after he allegedly attacked a 69-year-old delivery driver after arguing with him over a parking spot. The driver, Perry Tole, reportedly told cops he used pepper spray on Sanchez to stop him, but when that didn't work, he pulled a knife in self-defense, stabbing Sanchez several times. The former New York Jets signal-caller was rushed to a hospital in critical condition."
"He was initially facing three misdemeanor charges, including battery with injury, unlawful entry of a motor vehicle, and public intoxication, but the battery charge was later upgraded to a felony. Before the scuffle with Tole, an apparently intoxicated Sanchez was seen on security video stumbling around the area. Aside from the charges, Sanchez and Fox Sports have been sued by Tole, who is seeking an unknown amount in damages and attorneys' fees."
Mark Sanchez, 38, was fired by Fox Sports weeks after he was stabbed during a fight in Indianapolis. He was arrested after allegedly attacking 69-year-old delivery driver Perry Tole over a parking spot. Tole said he used pepper spray, then used a knife in self-defense, stabbing Sanchez several times. Sanchez was rushed to a hospital in critical condition and was arrested while recovering. Charges initially included three misdemeanors — battery with injury, unlawful entry of a motor vehicle, and public intoxication — with the battery charge upgraded to a felony. Tole has sued Sanchez and Fox Sports seeking damages and attorneys' fees. Fox hired Drew Brees, raising questions about Sanchez's broadcast future.
