What's the story?
According to NBC New York and Newsday, Conor McGregor has turned himself in after his team's actions during the UFC 223 media event on Thursday when several members of the Irishman's team stormed the parking lot and vandalised a UFC bus with fighters still inside.
Their actions baffled many fans and the events that transpired were caught on camera.
In case you didn't know...
Thursday evening's UFC media event was marred by the sudden and unprecedented actions of Conor McGregor and his team including Artem Lobov. As can be seen in the video below, the men attacked the UFC bus which still had fighters inside; Conor himself can be seen picking up a dolly that's meant to transport heavy equipment and chucking it at the bus' windows.

Among the injured were Michael Chiesa and Ray Borg who were scheduled to fight at Saturday night's UFC 223 event at Barclays. The two have since then been taken off the UFC 223 card owing to the severity of their injuries as well as Lobov, who would have had his first fight on Saturday.
The heart of the matter
According to the reports, McGregor has turned himself into the authorities and is expected to be fined or suspended by UFC, if not both.
The investigation is going on although the New York Police Department hasn't brought any charges against him; neither is he under arrest currently. However, that might change at any moment depending on the findings of the investigation.
What's next?
Their reckless actions ended up costing Lobov his first UFC fight on Saturday and it is yet to be seen what repercussions befall McGregor following the investigation.
Author's take
It's finally happened; McGregor has lost it. Or maybe the Irishman downed one too many pints of Guinness at the event. Either way, what-did-I-Just-see!
