Under legal issues, where it says “Fields had threatened him”, please change this to “alleged that Fields was abrasive to him and loudly demanded his autograph”. Please also add the incident took place in July 1998. All of this is mentioned in the source provided there. 2600:100C:A20A:E936:2477:5883:B714:AE8 (talk) 22:57, 22 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Partly done: That whole paragraph needed work - he wasn't on duty as a security guard when the arrest happened, as the article made it sound, he didn't refuse to give her an autograph, and he didn't punch her "several times". I made some changes to properly reflect the source. DrOrinScrivello (talk) 14:32, 23 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]
