Hockey Players Milano and Greer Arrested in NYC Brawl: Police

Two hockey players were arrested early Sunday in a brawl at a Greenwich Village apartment, the NYPD said. 

Frank "Sonny" Milano, 23, and Anthony "A.J." Greer, 22, were each charged with assault, the NYPD said. 

Police responded to an apartment on Houston Street between Sullivan and Thompson streets around 5:30 a.m., police said. A 28-year-old man inside said he was assaulted by two men inside. 

The victim had bruises and scrapes on his face and torso, police said. He refused medical attention. 

Greer plays for the Colorado Avalanche and Milano plays for the Columbus Blue Jackets. 

The Blue Jackets said in a tweet that the team was reviewing the situation and wouldn't comment at this time.

Avalanche spokesman Jean Martineau said the team was aware of the allegations surrounding Greer. 

"We will wait until the end of the investigation to comment," Martineau said in a statement.
