The Baltimore Police Department has issued an arrest warrant for John Callis, a 24-year-old Ravens fan accused of assaulting multiple Commanders supporters after Sunday’s game between the regional rivals.

Callis is wanted for three counts of second-degree assault and one count of first-degree aggravated assault.

“He’s fully cooperative, and he’s going to voluntarily surrender himself,” Patrick Seidel, Callis’ attorney, told the Baltimore Banner.

Police identified Callis through a video that went viral on social media. The recording showed a man wearing a Lamar Jackson jersey attack two men wearing burgundy and gold in Baltimore’s Federal Hill neighborhood.

The Ravens supporter knocked one Commanders fan to the ground with a right hook before shoving another person into a wall.

“I don’t lose,” the Baltimore fan says in the video while flexing his arm.

Police identified the victims as 23-year-old men, but authorities did not provide any information about potential injuries.

Callis lost his job at the Maury Donnelly & Parr insurance firm after internet sleuths identified him as the man in the viral video.

“MDP has a zero-tolerance policy for violence and aggressive behavior,” the company posted Monday on X. “This individual is no longer employed with our firm.”
