A man accused of urinating on a family, including an eght-year-old girl, at a Morgan Wallen concert in July has been arrested in North Carolina, according to Maryland police.
Jayson Reed, 33, is charged with four counts of second-degree assault, public urination and other related offenses, the Maryland Transportation Authority Police said in a news release Wednesday evening. Deputies in Wilson County, North Carolina arrested Reed after an investigation by Maryland police and consultation with Baltimore City State’s Attorney’s Office led to a warrant being issued.
As reported by TMZ in July, Troy Grevelding was at the M&T Bank Stadium concert in Baltimore with his wife, brother, and 8-year-old niece when a man behind them, whom Grevelding described as belligerent and appearing to be intoxicated, allegedly began urinating. Grevelding said urine landed on him and his family and told police the man was exposing himself. According to Grevelding, a brief confrontation ensued before the family left the concert and alerted security.
In a video posted to social media that went viral, officers initially told Grevelding they could not immediately arrest the alleged offender because they had not personally witnessed the incident. However, following that, Maryland Transportation Authority Police opened an investigation that led to Wednesday’s arrest. The transportation police it “conducted a thorough investigation and identified witnesses who were not present during the initial on-scene investigation.”
Reed is jailed in North Carolina awaiting extradition to Maryland, police said.
Second-degree assault is a misdemeanor in Maryland but is nonetheless punishable by a maximum of 10 years imprisonment for each count.
