Apparently, Spencer Jones had to go through a four-hour-long eye reconstruction surgery following the altercation, according to OU Daily.
It has been confirmed by Jones' lawyer, Woodrow Glass, that a police investigation is going on in this matter. However, Glass did not reveal any other details regarding the matter and added that Spencer Jones was "de-escalating" the situation. The lawyer believes that Jones was the victim of the "vicious assault" seen in the clip.
Walker Brown, the one who put the beatdown on Jones, has launched a GoFundMe campaign to cover the expenses spent in lawyering up against Spencer Jones.
Walker alluded that the reason why his nose had been bleeding was not captured in the video.
"I have not commented because there is an on-going investigation. I have been advised to get an attorney. I am also facing a surgery from an injury I received while defending myself and will be looking at some unplanned medical bills and time off of work recovering from the surgery. I am a full-time student who works two jobs", wrote Walker Brown on the GoFundMe.com description.
