Police believed she had been hanging around with him, they said. They told her the video she was recording was evidence and then confiscated her Apple iPhone, the report said.
Amphitheatre staff members said Roman and the woman entered the lower pavilion of the venue even though they didn't have tickets for that area, police said. They noted that Roman refused to leave when asked.

He was then forcefully escorted out with his arms behind his back, police said, which is when he reportedly head butted a security guard in the right side of the face.
On Sunday, after Roman had become sober, police said he admitted to being escorted out, head butting the guard and fighting with officers and theater staff.
"He said liquor affected his judgment and that he was sorry," police said in the report.
Roman was charged with obstructing a peace officer and battery.
