New York police has arrested Macedonian NBA star Pero Antic and his Atlanta Hawks teammate Thabo Sefolosha, following an incident in a night club in New York on Wednesday.
In the incident, the Indiana Pacers player Chris Copeland was stabbed, whereas his wife was slashed. Both the Hawks and the Pacers are in New York to play the Nets and the Knicks.
The arrests of the two Hawks players, Antic and Sefolosha, came after police tried to clear up the scene. Both are charged with obstructing justice, after they apparently slow to move when police asked them to leave the crime scene.
A 22-year-old man is suspected of stabbing Copeland and slashing his wife. Another 53 year old woman was injured in the incident. There are no reports on the seriousness of their injuries.
