CONOR MCGREGOR WARRANT ISSUED FOR HIS ARREST AFTER WINDOW-SMASHIN’ BUS ATTACK … Insane Video
TMZ Sports now has video showing Conor picking up a dolly and smashing the side window of the bus.
We spoke with Dana White … who tells us Michael Chiesa was “cut to pieces” in the attack and is currently hospitalized for his injuries. It’s unclear if he will fight as planned at UFC 223.
White also says Rose Namajunas was also on the bus and was very shaken up during the incident — she almost broke her hand.
We asked if Dana will fire Conor as a result of the incident and he told us, “This is bigger than us firing him.”
TMZ Sports has obtained video of Conor McGregor and his entourage going BERSERK at the Barclays Center … attacking a bus leaving the arena with several UFC fighters including Khabib Nurmagomedov.
An object was thrown through one of the bus windows — and the damage left one fighter, UFC lightweight contender Michael Chiesa, cut up and bloodied.
Unclear who was responsible for shattering the side window but it’s clear people on the bus suspect it’s Conor.
A member of Conor’s entourage then grabbed a chair and threw it at the front windshield of the bus. Conor grabbed a chair and tried to attack as well, but was restrained.
Fighters were at the arena doing media ahead of UFC 223 … and McGregor was videotaped by several witnesses running around the arena before the incident.
Police sources tell us NYPD got a call for a fight at Barclays involving 25 males … and EMS was called to the scene to treat injuries.
Unclear what may have triggered the incident, but Khabib did get into a heated confrontation with Conor’s good friend and training partner, Artem Lobov, Tuesday at the UFC fighters’ hotel in New York.
Law enforcement sources tell us the NYPD is looking for McGregor. We’re also told detectives are currently interviewing people who were on the scene during the incident.
Dana White tells TMZ Sports there’s a warrant out for Conor McGregor‘s arrest after he and his entourage attacked a bus with UFC fighters at the Barclays Center in Brooklyn.
However, we have not confirmed that with the NYPD just yet.
According to Dana, law enforcement has told Conor his plane cannot take off from New York and leave the state.
McGregor has been instructed to turn himself into authorities as soon as possible … and multiple people involved in the incident have vocalized that they plan on suing the Irishman.
Dana says he hasn’t spoken with Conor yet, but plans to do so as soon as possible. White says his focus right now is making sure UFC 223 continues as planned.
Conor’s close friend Artem Lobov, who was allegedly involved in the attack, has been pulled from the event. Dana tells us, “He’s obviously not fighting this weekend.”
