TMZ has obtained video footage of Ray Rice carrying his fiancee out of an elevator at the Atlantic City casino, which was the scene of the altercation. The video can be seen at TMZ's official website, but their staff graciously described the events that occur in the video:
The footage was shot on February 15th ... right before Rice and his fiancee Janay Palmer were both arrested for assault at the Revel Casino. Cops say they have video which proved both parties attacked each other.
But before the arrest, Ray can be seen trying to lift and move a seemingly unconscious Palmer out of a casino elevator. "
Both Ray Rice, the Baltimore Ravens running back, and his fiancee were arrested after an altercation early Saturday morning at a casino in Atlantic City.
Rice, 27, and Janay Palmer, 26, were charged with domestic violence-simple assault and were released with a summons. “After reviewing surveillance footage it appeared both parties were involved in a physical altercation,” a police statement said. “The complaint summons indicates that both [Rice] and Palmer struck each other with their hands. The responding officer signed a simple assault complaint against both Rice and Palmer.”
Police said that both “refused any medical attention” and were “transported to the Atlantic City Police Department holding facility and charged.”
Andrew Alperstein, an attorney for Rice, called the incident at the Revel Casino “a very minor physical altercation,” according to the Baltimore Sun.
Michael Diamondstein, a Philadelphia attorney hired to represent Rice, told the Sun: “There was an argument that included Ray. I can’t give any specifics because we haven’t seen the document yet.”
Rice, who signed a five-year, $35 million deal with the Ravens before the 2012 season, had a poor 2013, rushing for just 660 yards.
