News of Mark Sanchez getting sta:bed in Indianapolis early Saturday morning broke earlier today, with the former NFL quarterback one of two people who sustained severe knife wounds in a downtown incident.

Police have since announced that Sanchez has been arrested.

The 38-year-old, now a broadcaster for FOX Sports, was the subject of a statement released by the Indianapolis Metropolitan Police Department on Saturday afternoon, noting that he was under arrest in a surprising turn of events.

Sanchez is facing misdemeanor charges of battery with injury, unlawful entry of a motor vehicle, and public intoxication.

He is said to have sustained st:ab wounds, while the other person involved suffered lacerations.

He remains at the hospital and has yet to be booked, likely given his condition.

“Sanchez was arrested at the hospital for battery with injury, unlawful entry of a motor vehicle and public intoxication, all which are misdemeanors. All involved parties have been identified, and no further individuals are being sought by detectives,” the statement reads.

“Sanchez is still in the hospital and has not been booked into the Adult Detention Center.”

Mark Sanchez was a standout for the USC Trojans before being drafted in the first round by the New York Jets in 2009. He played in the NFL for 10 seasons, later joining FOX Sports as an analyst.

He was supposed to call Sunday’s game between the Indianapolis Colts and Las Vegas Raiders for the network.
