SANTA CRUZ, Cali. — Sean Kory’s mugshot is causing an internet sensation.

Police say 29-year-old Kory attacked a man during Halloween festivities Friday in Santa Cruz, California.

Authorities say Kory took the victim’s microphone and then attacked him with an aluminum tennis racket. Police said the alleged victim was dressed as a Fox News reporter, according to the Santa Cruz Sentinel. He was arrested, along with 31 other residents that night.

The victim, who did not reportedly suffer any injuries, reported Kory to police. Kory ran from police but was arrested after a brief chase, reported The Sentinel.
