CLEVELAND, Ohio -- A man accused of attacking and robbing a Cleveland Indians fan from Florida walking back to his hotel after Game 6 of the World Series is also on probation for possessing a gun with a felony record.

Anthony Johnson, 24, of Cleveland is charged with aggravated robbery. A warrant was issued Saturday for his arrest. He is not in police custody.

The 35-year-old Coral Gables, Florida man made the 1,200-mile trip to Cleveland by himself to see the Indians 9-3 loss to the Chicago Cubs.

He was born in Cleveland and lived here for a short time before moving away as young child. His parents remained Indians fans and passed that along to their sons, the man's brother said.

He was walking back to his hotel after the game when Johnson walked up behind him in a parking lot in the 1100 block of West 9th Street and slugged him in the head, according to police.

Surveillance video shows the man walking in the parking lot. Another man, later identified as Johnson, ran up behind him and slugged him in the side of the head, police said.

The man was knocked unconscious. Johnson rummaged through his pockets, dragged him on the pavement so he could get into the pockets on the other side of his pants, and stole $200 cash and his iPhone, according to police and the surveillance video.

The man was taken to MetroHealth Medical Center.

The man told police he only remembered walking back to his hotel and waking up in the hospital, according to police reports.

He suffered a broken tooth, broken nose, a concussion and several "severe" facial injuries, according to the man's brother, who did not want to be identified.

Cleveland police identified Johnson as the attacker after they verified tips that came in when surveillance photos were released to the public last week.

Johnson is on probation for carrying a gun into a Warehouse District bar on New Year's Day.

Johnson hid a gun in his sweatshirt while at Spirits Nightclub on West 6th Street. Johnson fought with a police officer and club security guard who tried to stop him. Officers found a handgun in Johnson's pocket after they were able to handcuff him.

Johnson pleaded guilty to possessing a weapon as a felony and was sentenced to two years on probation.

He served a nine-month prison sentence for leading Cleveland police on a chase in a stolen car in 2012. Police tried to stop his car after finding it was stolen from Bedford Heights. Johnson sped off, flipped his car and crashed.

He ran through backyards on East 133rd Street near Union Avenue and was arrested.

Johnson also served a nine-month prison sentence for robbing a man in Tower City in December 2011.
