Video has surfaced showing Raja Jackson, the 25-year-old son of UFC legend Quinton Rampage Jackson, being arrested after a violent incident at a Los Angeles wrestling event landed him in jail on felony charges.
In footage released by TMZ, Raja is seen being escorted out of an apartment complex by two police officers. He calmly walks down an outdoor staircase before briefly turning to look into the camera seemingly filmed by a neighbor or nearby resident. The arrest took place shortly after the disturbing in-ring attack that left one wrestler hospitalized.
The incident happened last month at a Knokx Pro Wrestling show, where Raja was caught on video viciously assaulting Syko Stu (real name Stuart Smith). He slammed Smith to the mat and unloaded nearly two dozen punches as Smith appeared unconscious. It took over 10 seconds before others intervened and pulled him off.
Smith reportedly suffered a fractured maxilla bone and was hospitalized for several days. Raja was arrested on a felony charge of battery with serious bodily injury. TMZ Sports later confirmed he had bonded out of jail shortly after his booking.
With footage of both the beatdown and arrest now public, Rajas legal battle is just beginning and the spotlight on the case isnt dimming anytime soon.
