Okla. St. football player Blatnick arrested, cited
STILLWATER, Okla. — Oklahoma State junior defensive end Jamie Blatnick has been cited for felony aggravated assault and battery after a fight with a former OSU offensive lineman at a Stillwater bar.
Police say witnesses told them Blatnick started the fight early Saturday by hitting Stephen Denning in the face with a beer bottle. Police say Denning was treated at a hospital for a fractured orbital socket. He was cited for misdemeanor assault.
No one had been charged as of early Monday.
School spokesman Kevin Klintworth says the university is still gathering information and had no comment.
Denning last played for the Cowboys in 2008.
