Semi-protected edit request on 9 February 2017[edit]

This edit request has been answered. Set the |answered= or |ans= parameter to no to reactivate your request.

Regarding the section Madison Square Garden arrest: it says he "refused to stop yelling at Dolan". I recommend amending with "is alleged to have yelled at Dolan and refused to stop" and adding, per the link below, "an allegation he denies". http://www.cbssports.com/nba/news/charles-oakley-denies-wrongdoing-following-ejection-arrest-at-knicks-game/ 92.225.134.250 (talk) 13:18, 9 February 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Semi-protected edit request on 10 February 2017[edit]

This edit request has been answered. Set the |answered= or |ans= parameter to no to reactivate your request.

After this statement: He was charged with three counts of misdemeanor assault and criminal trespassing. In a statement, the Knicks stated that Oakley "came to the game tonight and behaved in a highly inappropriate and completely abusive manner. He has been ejected and is currently being arrested by the New York City Police Department."

Please Add the following statement, because Oakley's view of the events should be noted: According to the New York Post Charles Oakley has a different description of the events. He claims that he sat down in his seat and he saw the Knicks owner James Dolan look at him and within four minutes he was being asked to leave the arena. He says that he didn't become combative until he was asked to leave for no apparent reason. http://nypost.com/2017/02/09/charles-oakley-tells-his-side-more-security-kept-coming-at-me/ Bmorrow151 (talk) 07:16, 10 February 2017 (UTC)[reply]
