Several people witnessed the incident.
"Somebody could have been down here taking a picture and they end up in the middle of a situation, they had nothing to do with," Roneese Davis, one of the witnesses, said. "People have no self-respect and they have no consideration for the people around them, anything could be happening down here."

He was taken to the hospital along with the woman. She was not seriously hurt, but checked out as a precaution.
