McKinley then allegedly shoved the vendor up against a cooler and then knocked him to the ground. Once the vendor was knocked on the ground McKinley punched him twice in the back of the head.

Police say two witnesses were able to confirm the vendor’s claims when he told them what happened.

McKinley faces simple assault and robbery charges.
