UFC veteran Terry Etim was injured on Wednesday after reportedly darting in and out of traffic and throwing himself against the windshields of several vehicles.
According to a report by the Liverpool Echo, “Eyewitnesses reported seeing a man, in his 30s (later identified as Etim), running amok on East Prescot Road, this afternoon. It appeared he threw himself against as many as four vehicles, including three single-decker Stagecoach and Arriva buses. All except one were believed to be stationary at the time.
“He was eventually restrained by police and taken to hospital. His condition was this evening described as serious.”
It was unclear why Etim did what he did, but an eye witness said that he had friends running after him and trying to restrain him, but they were unable to keep him under control.
Etim (16-5) hasn’t fought since 2013, when he defeated Patrick Cenoble at Bellator 109. His last bout in the Octagon was a loss to Renee Forte earlier that year in London.
