Ohio teenager assaults Def Leppard drummer Rick Allen outside hotel in Florida

A teenager, Max Edward Hartley, has been bailed after assaulting iconic rock group Def Leppard’s one-armed drummer, Rick Allen, outside the Four Seasons in Florida.

Allen, 59, was in Florida to perform with the band at the Seminole Hard Rock Hotel and Casino.

He had gone outside for a cigarette when Hartley, from Ohio, violently attacked him.

A police report confirmed that Hartley was hiding behind a pillar outside the hotel before he rushed at the drummer and knocked him to the ground, causing him to hit his head.

Allen provided a sworn statement to police and told them that he wanted Hartley to be prosecuted.

Authorities confirmed that Allen hit his head on the ground, causing injury, with a woman rushing out of the hotel to help him.

However, Hartley then attacked her, hitting her multiple times and dragging her by her hair before fleeing the area.

The report said that the defendant continued to batter her by striking her while she was on the ground.

She tried to escape by running into the hotel, but the defendant grabbed her by her hair and dragged her out of the lobby and back onto the sidewalk before fleeing the area.

Hartley was arrested after being found by officers at a nearby hotel breaking car windows.

He appeared to be on spring break in Florida at the time of the attack and played Varsity Lacrosse and Football at Saint Ignatius High School in Cleveland.

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

DailyMail.com reached out to Allen and Def Leppard for a comment but did not receive an immediate response. Hartley declined to comment when approached by 7News and was asked if he was a Def Leppard fan.

Instead, he held his arms up to cover his face and showed injuries on his elbows but declined to comment if he knew who Allen was.

The band is currently on their World Tour and will next appear in their hometown of Sheffield at Bramall Lane on May 22.
