UPDATE II: CSN Philly’s John Gonzalez with the update from the police report.

The incident occurred at Recess around 2:45 a.m. Sunday, according to the report.

The report states that officers Darnell Jessie, Roland Butler and Sergeant Daniel Ayers purchased four bottles of champagne that evening. When Butler “moved to another location with his bottle,” former Pitt football player Tamarcus Porter “approached him and tried to pull the bottle from his hand.” According to the report, “an argument ensued as to the ownership of the bottle,” at which point McCoy, Brinkley and Christopher Henderson “assisted [Porter].” During the ensuing altercation, according to the report, Butler was knocked to the ground and “punched, kicked and stomped about his body and head multiple times.”

A law enforcement official told CSNPhilly.com that two of the officers suffered broken ribs. According to the report, Butler transported himself to Delaware County Memorial Hospital, where he was treated for a laceration to his right eye, a broken nose, broken ribs and a sprained thumb. Jessie was admitted to Hahnemann Hospital where he received stitches over his left eye and treatment for a possible skull fracture.

Video surveillance from outside showed both parties being ejected from the club, according to the report. A camera inside the club where the incident occurred “was not functional.”

Spokesmen for the Philadelphia Police Department and the Buffalo Bills did not immediately respond to requests for comment.

UPDATE III:  PhillyInfluencer.com has learned that Philly rapper, Meek Mill, who was just ordered by the judge to go on house arrest (which doesn’t start until March 1) this week for violating probation, was in fact at Recess on the night of February 7th. Multiple sources say that Meek was in the VIP section that night. This story continues to take many turns and now it now puts Meek in the spotlight.

Philly Mag has also obtained a police report of the incident.
