MINNEAPOLIS (WCCO) — A football fan feels vindicated after a jury found him not guilty of trying to disarm a police officer while being detained at a Minnesota Vikings game last year.
Anastacio Lopez was ejected from the game for fighting in the stands on Dec. 1, 2016.
He was in the process of being taken to a holding center inside U.S. Bank Stadium by Minneapolis police officers when they took him down, kneed and punched him. They then used an electroshock weapon on him.
Lopez received a felony charge for attempting to disarm a peace officer.
