Mark Sanchez, 38, posted a $300 bond and is scheduled to appear in court Tuesday on misdemeanor charges of battery with injury, unlawful vehicle entry and public intoxication. A probable cause affidavit describes an alley argument near The Westin Indianapolis and the Indianapolis Marriott Downtown in which a man who works for a commercial cooking oil recycling company was backed into a loading dock. Surveillance video allegedly shows Sanchez grabbing and throwing the man, who pepper sprayed Sanchez and then, fearing for his life, pulled a knife and struck Sanchez multiple times. The man suffered a cheek cut, was treated and released. Sanchez was hospitalized after being stabbed and was in Indianapolis as part of a broadcasting crew for a Raiders game.
