A 19-year-old Pennsylvania man was arrested for allegedly punching a police horse before the start of the NFC Championship Sunday, according to Fox Philadelphia.
Andrew Tornetta, of North Wales, was part of a crowd that was being ordered to disperse after a fight broke out around 3 p.m. in the Lincoln Financial Field parking lot, police say according to Fox Philadelphia.
Police say Tornetta was being combative and after an officer tried to grab his jacket to lead him away from the area, Tornetta slipped away from the officer before punching the police horse twice in the horse's right front shoulder and hitting the officer just below his eye, according to Fox Philadelphia.
