Crazy world. They shouldn't allow bail for someone who randomly attacks people.

Def Leppard drummer Rick Allen ‘violently assaulted by teen, 19, outside hotel’ in shocking unprovoked attack

The attack occurred on Sunday evening outside the Four Seasons hotel in Fort Lauderdale when Allen, who was smoking a cigarette in the valet area, was randomly attacked by a stranger, local police said.

Fort Lauderdale Police later identified the suspect as Ohio resident Max Edward Hartley.

Hartley was hiding behind a pillar outside the hotel before he rushed at the drummer and knocked him to the ground, according to the police.

The attack caused Allen to bang his head on the ground, causing injury, police said.

Cops also said that a woman witnessed the assault and rushed to help Allen.

However, the woman would fall victim to Hartley's wild antics, as he attacked her, striking her multiple times and dragging her by her hair before fleeing the area, police said.

Hartley was eventually arrested after officers at a nearby hotel saw him breaking car windows.

He was taken to Broward County Jail and charged with two counts of battery, four counts of criminal mischief, and abusing an elderly or disabled adult.

He was released on Tuesday after posting bail.

When an adult(18 and up) commits violent crime, they should be held in jail until the trial to determine guilt or innocence. Being hit like that and knocking one's head on concrete can be life threatening. I hope Rick and the women are ok and if hurt make a full recovery.

Wow. What a deep insight into due process of law. You’re losing your edge, wons.
