A man was arrested at Rivers Casino in Des Plaines after police said he slapped Chicago Bears wide receiver Devin Hester in the back of the head.

Hester was in a cash transaction line at around 10:40 p.m. Friday when Daniel G. Rago, 52, of the 200 block of Wille Street in Mount Prospect, approached the football player, slapped him in the back of the head and walked away, Des Plaines Police Chief Jim Prandini said.

After Hester notified the casino’s security team, Rago was escorted to a holding area and later arrested by Des Plaines police. “There was no brawl, no melee that drew attention to the situation,” Prandini said. “There was no big scene that took place.”

Prandini said Rago did not explain his reasons for the alleged slap to police. Prandini added that Hester was “very professional” during the incident, noting Hester did not retaliate and asked to sign complaints against Rago.
“Devin was basically attacked. He did the right thing and showed great restraint in an unfortunate situation,” said Eugene Parker, Hester’s agent.


Rago was charged with one misdemeanor count of battery, police said. He posted $100 bond and is scheduled to appear in Cook County court in Skokie on Dec. 1. Rago could not immediately be reached for comment.

He's a Bears fan too..Too bad Kreutz wasn't out and about with him. Something gives me the hint that guy's face would be re-arranged. He's REALLY lucky Marvin Harrison wasn't there, cause that fat fuck woulda swallowed him in two bites.
