Notorious former Jets coach was target of Diddy's attack

Sal Alosi — the same guy who is notorious for tripping a Miami Dolphins player while serving as a coach on the New York Jets — is the previously unnamed UCLA assistant who was allegedly attacked by P. Diddy on Monday, TMZ reports.

Diddy was taken to UCLA campus jail and was expected to an LA county facility later in the evening after being charged for assault with a deadly weapon. He reportedly was upset with a UCLA coach for yelling at his son Justin, who is a defensive back on the Bruins.

UCLA said in a statement that Diddy went after Alosi with a kettlebell, which is popular in weight training.
