According to the preliminary report, once the Subaru owner got out of the vehicle, Ramsey punched him repeatedly and bit his nose, "ripping the flesh on the tip of the nose." The man also claimed Ramsey threatened to kill him.
A responding police officer found "two males with bloody faces" at the garage just outside Razorback Stadium after Arkansas' game against Missouri State. Occupants of both vehicles got out to help separate the two men.
