Footage has been released of the wild brawl between former NHLer Paul Bissonnette and six men at a restaurant in Arizona.
The surveillance video of the Nov. 24 incident at a Houston’s in Scottsdale was posted to social media by 12News, a Phoenix outlet. It shows Bissonnette, 39, who hails from Welland and is now a popular hockey broadcaster, being chased through a parking lot by the men.
They gang up and attack him before Bissonnette gets away.
“This is the worst of it I took after I knock out that inbred William Carroll f–k before we pass the dumpster,” Bissonnette posted on X.
“It was never going to be a fair fight. Let the games begin. Ate some boot f–ks to the head & jaw but wouldn’t change a thing. F–k the Scottsdale Six. This ain’t over.”
Six men were charged with assault and some also were charged with disorderly conduct, TMZ reported. The arrested were: Henry Mesker, John Carroll, William Carroll, Danny Bradley, Edward Jennings and Sean Daley.
Bissonnette has said he was defending staff at the restaurant, where he dines often, because the men were being rude and getting physical with them.
They had allegedly been involved in a separate incident hours earlier that day.
