NFL Player Alvin Kamara Sued For $10M By Man Who Alleges He attacked Him At Las Vegas Casino

A man says he was attacked by New Orleans Saints running back Alvin Kamara in a Las Vegas casino and has since filed a lawsuit against him.

Kamara and the other men allegedly involved in the attack include Kansas City Chiefs cornerback Chris Lammons, Percy Harris, and Darrin Young. They all face battery charges in Las Vegas Justice Court, the Review-Journal reported.

The lawsuit alleges that criminal proceedings, which have been delayed multiple times, have “seemingly been put on pause to allow Kamara to play an entire season for the Saints without being suspended.”

Darnell Greene, who is from Houston, is seeking at least $10 million from the New Orleans Saints running back, according to the lawsuit, which was filed in a Louisiana Court.

Greene’s attorneys, Anthony Buzbee, Thomas Holler, and John Munoz, Greene said he was attacked “without justifiable provocation” during a brawl at The Cromwell on Feb. 5.

As a result, he suffered “severe injuries” to his neck, back, head, shoulder, knees, and face, including “a disfiguring facial fracture,” blunt force trauma to his head, multiple disc protrusions, and structural tears in his shoulder. He will now need to undergo numerous surgeries, his attorneys added.

The suit also references NFL Commissioner Roger Goodell, saying that he failed to “fully investigate” the issue, and alleges that he is “ostensibly waiting for the criminal proceedings to play out before issuing a suspension.”

“It is highly suspected that Goodell has seen the violent security footage of the assault — just as Plaintiff has — but is choosing not to take corrective action,” the lawsuit reads.

“Darnell Greene refuses to allow the Commissioner, the authorities, or Kamara himself to sweep this matter under the rug.”

The alleged attack happened about 6:30 a.m. on Feb. 5 as Kamara, his girlfriend, his assistant, and two friends were leaving Drai’s Nightclub inside The Cromwell, Kamara’s arrest report states.

Kamara told authorities that he thought Greene had done something to someone in his group and punched him as he ran away.

Greene allegedly tried to enter an elevator that Kamara and his friends were in, but Kamara “forcefully blocked” Greene from getting in, according to Friday’s lawsuit. He then shoved the victim into a wall and repeatedly punched him in the face, and the case continued.

When Greene tried to run away, Kamara “chased Greene down the hall and proceeded to strike him multiple times until he was knocked to the ground,” the lawsuit reads.

Surveillance footage obtained by authorities shows Kamara punching Greene eight times, Lammons punching him once and stomping on him three times, Harris stomping on him 16 times, and Young stomping on him four times.

Kamara was arrested the following day, just after he played in the NFL Pro Bowl game at Allegiant Stadium. Harris and Young were arrested on Feb. 14, while Lammons turned himself in at the Clark County Detention Center a few days later.

All four men posted bail and were released from custody.

During Kamara’s last court hearing in September, lawyers attended on his behalf. The case was delayed for more than a month so they could try to resolve it.

Another hearing is scheduled for Nov. 9.

“Kamara must be held legally responsible for his outrageous and violent behavior,” the lawsuit states.
