University police arrested a University of Wisconsin-Madison student at the Kohl Center during the UW men’s basketball game Saturday for fourth degree sexual assault, battery and disorderly conduct, UW-Madison Police Department Spokesperson Marc Lovicott said.
Erik Lockner-Kotek, 22, was yelling derogatory obscenities to the other team, as well as other fans at the game, including children, Lovicott said. He also slapped the backside of a female fan sitting across the aisle from him, which was witnessed by security staff.
Lockner-Kotek was arrested by UWPD and booked into the Dane County Jail.
