Police officers arrived at the scene and spoke to both parties. Ortiz was cited but not arrested and is due in court at a yet-to-be-determined date. Misdemeanor battery can lead to a $1,000 fine or six months in jail in Nevada. Community service is often assigned instead of said punishment, however.
Bellator officials declined comment on the matter when reached by Sherdog.com. Ortiz last competed at Bellator 142 in September, when he was submitted by Liam McGeary in the opening frame of a 205-pound title bout.
