Houston police verified that the fight took place at about 10 p.m. on February 4. They claim that a manager, a doorman, and another employee were all named as complainants on their police report of the event.

The manager informed HPD officers that he was assaulted with a bottle and elbowed in the face by suspects. He informed them that the individuals involved had previously caused similar difficulties.

When cops arrived, HPD stated that all of the suspects had left. As a result, HPD was unable to provide ABC13 with the identities or numbers of suspects implicated.

According to HPD, the management did not wish to file charges. He explained that all he wanted to do was record what had transpired.

Young is a Houston native. He is widely recognized as one of the greatest collegiate quarterbacks of all time. During his stay at the University of Texas, he finished second in the Heisman Trophy vote.

Eyewitness News reached out to the former NFL great for comment, but he did not respond.
