Around 11:15 pm on April 28, 2017, IMPD Officers were dispatched to 5101 E 38th Street on the report of a person stabbed at the Ebony and Ivory Nightclub. When officers arrived they located 36-year-old Michael Robertson being pinned down by the nightclub’s security guards and quickly took him into custody. Robertson allegedly attacked the security guard after being denied entry due to a private event being held at the club. Camera footage from inside the club shows Robertson attempt to punch the guard before grabbing a box cutter and chasing him through the parking lot and back into the club. The security guard sustained several cuts to both sides of his head and was taken to Community Hospital for treatment. A second security guard was cut on the finger while attempting to subdue Robertson and was treated at the scene.
Robertson was transported to the Arrestee Processing Center by the Marion County Sheriff’s Office and preliminarily charged with Aggravated Battery. The Marion County Prosecutor’s Office will review the case and make a changing decision.
