Conor McGregor was caught in a violent rage Thursday afternoon in a Barclay’s Center parking garage.

Multiple witnesses uploaded video of the incident. It’s not exactly clear what set McGregor off, but there’s growing speculation that it may have to do with UFC President Dana White stripping McGregor of his lightweight title on Wednesday. McGregor promptly threw a fit on Twitter, calling what seems to be the entire UFC a pretty lewd word.

His trainer also reportedly got into a verbal altercation with UFC fighter Khabib Nurmagomedov earlier this week, which could have also set him McGregor off.

So today, McGregor chased down as a bus carrying UFC lightweight contender Michael Chiesa and Khabib Nurmagomedov.

The footage is absolutely insane. It’s difficult to make out where Conor is in all of this but TMZ confirms he’s the one who tossed the dolly into the bus window.

The incident was also captured from inside the bus.

Police and EMS arrived and treated several of the men onboard. Dana White told TMZ that Michael Chiesa was “cut to pieces,” and is currently in the hospital being treated for his injuries.

As of now, there’s a warrant out for McGregor’s arrest. When asked by TMZ whether he’ll fire McGregor after this incident, Dana White simply replied, “This is bigger than us firing him.”
