A Baltimore Ravens fan wanted in connection with the alleged assault of two Washington Commanders fans turned himself in to Baltimore police on Monday.

A viral social media video showed a Ravens fan walking up to two Commanders fans on the street and apparently starting throwing punches for no reason, one of which knocked out one of the Commanders fans.

John Callis, 24, is charged with first-degree aggravated assault and three counts of second-degree assault after a warrant was issued for his arrest last week.

“In reference to the brutal assault that occurred on October 13, 2024 in the 1000 block of S. Charles St., 24-year-old John Callis was in police custody,” Baltimore police wrote on X on Monday.

Callis faces up to 25 years in prison for the attack, which also involved a third victim who was off camera minutes before the viral video of him attacking the other two victims was recorded.

In the viral video, police say Callis was wearing a purple Lamar Jackson jersey after Baltimore beat Washington 30-23 in Sunday afternoon’s game.

After battling the two Commanders fans, the man in the Jackson jersey shouts, “I won’t lose,” as others around him cheer him on.

According to charging documents obtained by Baltimore’s WBAL-TV, Commanders fans met the man outside the Cross Street Market before the attack at 9:42 p.m. There, the victims say the man, believed to be Callis, “began aggressively grabbing and punching Victim #1 in the face.”

Three minutes later, Commanders fans returning to the area to find a lost cell phone encountered the man believed to be Callis again. This is when the viral video was recorded.

While the video shows everything, the charging documents state that Victim #1 was struck “on the left side of his head,” causing Victim #1’s body to go completely limp while he fell unconscious on an in A nearby parked vehicle fell and hit his head on the left side door of the vehicle…”
