Baltimore Ravens rookie linebacker Tony Fein was arrested and charged Sunday with assaulting a police officer at a restaurant, authorities said.
Fein was eating dinner at Johnny Rockets in the Inner Harbor when a security officer thought he saw him pass a handgun to one of his friends, police spokesman Anthony Guglielmi said. It turned out to be a cell phone.
When police questioned Fein, he became belligerent and shoved the officer, Guglielmi said. Sgt. Joseph Donato was knocked down and suffered an injured elbow, a police report said.
According to the report, Donato loudly told Fein: ''Stand up, turn around and keep your hands where I can see them.'' Fein reacted by pushing Donato with one hand while turning around from the restaurant counter, the report said.
Donato grabbed Fein by the shirt and forced him to the ground, where he and other officers handcuffed him, the report said.
