During a fight Sunday night, the performer used mace against another man, temporarily blinding him, according to a report from NJ.com.

Court records show he was charged with third-degree aggravated assault, third-degree unlawful possession of a weapon and fourth-degree possession of a weapon for an unlawful purpose.

A friend of the Batman performer told BreakingAC that the other man had spit on him, and the cosplayer was defending himself.

He decided to take on the Batman persona in 2016 after moving to Atlantic City, according to a previous report from the Press of Atlantic City. He is often seen walking around the city and Boardwalk and is known for taking photos with tourists.
