Mark Sanchez Hospitalized After Indianapolis Stabbing as Police Arrest Him on Misdemeanors

Prosecutors now weigh charges following a police video review of what investigators describe as an isolated downtown dispute.

Overview

  • Indianapolis police say two non-local men were involved in a physical altercation around 12:30 a.m. downtown, leaving one with stab wounds and the other with lacerations.
  • Fox Sports confirmed Sanchez is recovering in a hospital in stable condition after the overnight incident near West Washington Street and Senate Avenue.
  • IMPD arrested Sanchez at the hospital on three alleged misdemeanors — battery with injury, unlawful entry of a motor vehicle, and public intoxication — noting he remains hospitalized and unbooked.
  • Detectives have reviewed video of the confrontation, identified both parties, and stated the case will be presented to the Marion County Prosecutor’s Office for a charging decision.
  • Sanchez, in Indianapolis to work the Colts–Raiders broadcast, will not call the game, and local outlets report the other man has claimed self-defense, a contention that has not been adjudicated.
