EAST RUTHERFORD, N.J. (WACH, AP) -- A South Carolina man was arrested after allegedly using an illegal Taser in a fight with other fans during the Dallas Cowboys-New York Jets game Sunday night, state police said.
The New Jersey State Police say that it started at about 9:40 p.m. in section 324 of the stadium. They say LeRoy T. McKelvey of Moncks Corner, S.C., got into a verbal altercation with other fans. It apparently turned physical.
He is then accused of pulling out a stun gun and using it on three people in the crowd. MetLife Stadium CEO Mark Lamping said no one was seriously hurt in the incident.
McKelvey was charged with three counts of aggravated assault and two weapons counts. The 59-year-old McKelvey was taken to the Bergen County Jail where bail was set at $22,500. It wasn't known if he had retained an attorney.
There was an increased security presence at the game on the 10th anniversary of the Sept. 11, 2001, attacks, and Lamping said normal procedures for pat downs were "in effect at all entry gates."
