Brown’s lawyer, Steve Stice made a statement on the GoFundMe page on Wednesday which said:

The viral video does not show the original assault and battery suffered by Mr. Walker at the hands of Mr. Jones and his friend.

Mr. Walker was legally justified in defending himself in this matter. As a result, Mr. Walker received several injuries including a torn bicep which will require surgery. We will not make any further comment until the conclusion of the investigation by the authorities.

While Brown only suffered a torn bicep, Spencer Jones had broken his left orbital – the bones surrounding his left eye.

Jones’ attorney Woody Glass revealed that Spencer was waiting for his friend and went in to check on him after he took too long to come out of the bar. After seeing his friend engaged in an argument, he tried to maintain the calm of the situation, which backfired and the brawl began.
