Troopers saw the man fall several times and stepped in to help security get him to his hotel room. That’s when police said the 25-year-old intentionally headbutted one of the troopers in the face.
The man was arrested and transported to a Detroit hospital for medical clearance. He was lodged at the Detroit Detention Center pending prosecutor review.
