Overview

• Kevin Weaver, 41, turned himself in and now faces first- and second-degree assault charges stemming from the Sept. 27 incident outside Cross Street Public House.
• A judge ordered Weaver held without bond on Thursday, finding he posed a danger after the court heard he used his role as security to escalate the encounter.
• Charging documents say Weaver kept the man in a chokehold for about 30 seconds, said “Ain’t no tapping, you’re going to sleep,” and smashed his head into a car window, causing a concussion.
• Baltimore Police say there were no initial 911 calls and the investigation remains active, with detectives reviewing the widely shared video and seeking tips.
• Cross Street Public House said Weaver was not its employee and cut ties with the contracted security firm, while Weaver’s defense and family claim the man made first contact.
