UFC Fighter Andre Petroski Takes Down Man Who Was Committing Public Indecency In A Restroom

Andre Petroski and a member of his entourage reportedly prevented a man from committing public indecency following his fight at UFC 292. 

The middleweight had just beaten Gerald Meerschaert via a split decision to take his record to 5-0.

In the aftermath of the victory, the fighter was delighted to have remained undefeated as he targeted further improvements.

Petroski On His Win

“Right now, I’m just happy. It was a hard-fought, obviously good fight – a good test for me. I think that although it wasn’t like the finish that I wanted, it wasn’t the submission that I wanted, I continue to prove myself. I continue to prove that I have all the tools. I’m not just a submission expert. I can go the distance. I’ve proven that the last two fights. Say what you want,” Petroski

However, that moment of success was soon removed as Petroski encountered a rather bizarre incident. 

It is alleged that Petroski and someone from his team stopped someone masturbating in public as they stopped at a restroom.

Petroski had been on his way back to Philadelphia when he encountered the incident. The situation was dealt with, as the authorities were informed. 

Thereafter, Petroski had this to say.

Petroski On The Incident

“Here’s a little more backstory… we caught this man masturbating to children in the bathroom. It turned out he took an Uber to a service area on the turnpike to do this. Worst part he admitted to doing this frequently. It’s sad that he will get away with this but hopefully we are able to inspire more people to stand up and take action,” Petroski

It is not clear what has happened to the defendant in question. But one thing for sure is that star’s intervention had prevented things from escalating. 

And now that the incident was out of the way, the MMA fighter has a chance to continue working up the ranks for a title shot. And that is the most important thing to remember moving forward.
