WATCH: Surveillance video shows Alvin Kamara, Chris Lammons and two others taking part in night club beating
Alvin Kamara, star running back for the New Orleans Saints, is in legal trouble in Las Vegas stemming from a physical altercation at a nightclub in February 2022. New surveillance footage, included as evidence with the case, shows a gruesome scene that has led to Kamara and three others facing criminal charges.
According to testimony from the victim, Darnell Greene, Kamara allegedly originally shoved him away from an elevator and to the wall. From there, one of the other men — Cincinnati Bengals cornerback Chris Lammons — proceeded to punch Greene and knock him to the ground. At that point, the group of men appear to repeatedly strike and kick Greene for at least 10 seconds.
It’s hard to make out who is who — save for Greene — in the video.
According to a report from KLAS in Las Vegas, the four men — Kamara, Lammons, Christopher Young and Percy Harris — each face charges of conspiracy to commit battery and battery resulting in substantial bodily harm.
The altercation took place during or around the time that the NFL was hosting the annual Pro Bowl weekend, this time in Las Vegas.
Grand jury indicts Alvin Kamara and three others for alleged nightclub beating
A grand jury in Clark County (Las Vegas, Nevada) indicted New Orleans Saints’ star running back Alvin Kamara and three others for an alleged beating outside of a Las Vegas nightclub last year. They were indicted on Wednesday afternoon, according to David Charns of 8newsnow.com. Kamara, Cincinnati Bengals cornerback Chris Lammons, and two other men face criminal charges surrounding the incident outside of a strip club on Feb. 5, 2022, during the NFL’s Pro Bowl weekend. The indictment means the criminal case will immediately bypass Las Vegas Justice Court and move to district court. A judge set a court date for March 2nd.
The grand jury indicted the four men Wednesday on charges of conspiracy to commit battery and battery resulting in substantial bodily harm. The victim’s name in the case is Darnell Greene. His shoulder, neck, and back were injured. His orbital lobe was also broken during the incident.
Greene has also filed a civil lawsuit in the state of Louisiana. Videos and an audio recording taken in an SUV after the alleged assault have not been released. The lawsuit includes still images from surveillance video and transcription of the audio recording.
“Immediately after the vicious beating, Kamara bragged about it with a member of his group, stating, “I connected with the [expletive’s] jaw so hard,” the lawsuit claims.
