Really strange story

[Scrapper1]

Basketball Hall of Famer Dominique Wilkins, who serves as an analyst on Atlanta Hawks broadcasts for FOX Sports South, was attacked by a fan at Philips Arena on Wednesday after the Hawks' 85-82 victory over the Orlando Magic, according to a statement released by the Hawks.

The Hawks did not identify the fan, but said he was taken into custody by Atlanta police. The alleged attacker was Rashan S. Michel, 36, a former NBA and college referee. Michel was charged with one count of simple battery following the incident, which according to the Atlanta Journal Constitution, stemmed from a dispute over money owed to him for suits he made for Wilkins.

According to reports, Michel hit Wilkins in the chest and also struck a security guard. It was also reported that Michel told police he attacked Wilkins because the former Hawks legend owed him money for suits bought several years ago.

How bizarre is this? Bad enough the guy is assaulted on the court, just after finishing his job; but the attacker is a former NBA ref? And he's mad about suits that he made for Wilkins? Just so strange!
