Mike Wallace fights back tears describing moment 'three men kicked his daughter and knocked her to the ground
June 21, 2016
Mike Wallace is speaking for the first time about the moment three young men allegedly attacked him and his family after a concert on Friday. The 57-year-old NASCAR veteran was leaving a Rascal Flatts show in Charlotte, North Carolina when he says that the three men approached him and said: 'How did you like the show?' Wallace claims that the group then began screaming at him and his wife and daughter. That was followed by the men repeatedly kicking and punching him in the head, leaving him with a concussion. He also lost three teeth and needed 12 stitches. Those injuries were not as bad as what he saw after he came to in the parking lot though, and realized he was not the group's only victim. The men also allegedly assaulted his daughter Lindsey Wallace Van Wingerdenon when she tried to stop the attack.
'I woke up. I see my daughter laying on the ground, which is devastating for a father,' said Wallace while fighting back tears in an interview with WSOC.
'I mean, that's the worst thing in the world.'
