The police in Arlington, Texas are investigating a Cowboys security guard for an incident with a Panthers fan at AT&T Stadium on Thanksgiving.

The security guard, whose name has not been released, is shown in videos that have been widely viewed online putting a man in a Panthers jersey in a choke hold. The Dallas CBS affiliate reports that the Arlington Police Department reached out to the fan after seeing social media posts about the incident, and the fan filed a police report.

The fan says he was doing nothing more than holding up a sign that read “11-0” when security told him to leave, and when he asked why, the guard responded with the choke hold.

“They would not tell me anything specific and said they would not ask me to leave again. I politely stood up for myself and before I knew it they were nudging Mom out of the way to get to me and at that point, I walked into the aisle and was immediately put into a chokehold,” he explained on Facebook.

The Cowboys have not commented on the matter and the security guard has not been identified.
