Gotta see it: Chicago's Tommy Hawk involved in fan altercation

Chicago's season has been so disappointing even their mascot got involved in a little fisticuff with an unruly fan on Friday.


According to police, the mascot was attacked by a fan at United Centre after the Blackhawks lost to the Winnipeg Jets 4-3 in overtime. Authorities stated that they were notified around 11:15 pm on Friday night that a man performing as the team mascot was punched in the face by another male and put in a headlock.

We are gathering the facts and will have no further comment at this time, pending our investigation, a Blackhawks spokesperson stated. 

But the police narrative doesn't match exactly what is shown in a couple of SnapChat videos that are circulating online. Have a watch at the video:
