Former Eagles QB Mark Sanchez faces felony charge

The Fox Sports analyst was pepper-sprayed and stabbed multiple times during a late-night altercation in a downtown Indianapolis alley over the weekend, which resulted in criminal charges against him, according to court records filed Sunday.

A police affidavit alleges that Sanchez, smelling of alcohol, accosted a 69-year-old truck driver who backed into a hotel’s loading docks, leading to a confrontation outside the vehicle that prompted the driver to pull out a knife to defend himself.

Sanchez was hospitalized with stab wounds to his upper right torso, the affidavit signed by a police detective said. The truck driver, identified as P.T., had a cut to his left cheek, it said.

Mears said his office received an amended probable cause affidavit Monday, which led to the additional charge because the truck driver suffered serious injuries.

Mears said police are still gathering information and have several outstanding warrants.

“The chief and his team continue to work on this matter, continue to track down additional details for us and really supplement that probable cause affidavit,” Mears said. “I cannot say enough good things about the work that took place at IMPD. There’s a ton of information to sift through and gather.”
