Ex-Steelers linebackerAnthony Chickillo is tased by cops after he 'tried to attack everybody' at h

Former Steelers linebacker Anthony Chickillo was tasered by cops this week after he ‘tried to attack everybody’ at a hospital during an alleged medical episode.

Chickillo, 30, was at Hialeah Hospital in Hialeah, Florida on Thursday when he began ‘trashing’ an office there, witnesses told TMZ.

He then got into a wrestling match with his dad, cops said. 

And in video obtained by TMZ, Chickillo can be seen barefoot and shirtless as police subdue him and place him in handcuffs.

According to Chickillo’s girlfriend, Katherine ‘Tatu Baby’ Flores, his actions were caused by his bipolar disorder, which she says was caused by a concussion he sustained in the NFL.

‘It was just a medical situation,’ she said.

TMZ reported that Chickillo was not arrested, but he was placed on a 72-hour psychiatric hold.

Chickillo’s girlfriend said he was currently hospitalized and receiving medication.

Chickillo was a sixth-round pick by the Steelers in the 2015 draft, and played five seasons with the franchise.

He played one season with the Broncos in 2020 before hanging up his cleats. 

Chickillo was arrested in 2019 for allegedly assaulting his then-girlfriend, Canadian track and field star Alysha Newman, but the charges were dropped as she refused to testify against him.
