Jets owner Woody Johnson previously took a photo with the fan who was charged with assault and disorderly conduct after a fight after Gang Green’s win over the Patriots on Sunday.




Jets owner Woody Johnson says the team has “no tolerance” in dealing with the fans who were fighting, leading to four arrests, after Sunday’s big victory against the Patriots.


“Our job is to provide a safe environment, a family environment, for everybody,” Johnson said Thursday at a midtown Super Bowl event. “Unfortunately, those things will happen. We will wait for the legal outcome and see what happens to those guys. That’s something we are putting a lot of time and effort into stopping those kinds of things.”

Jets fan Kurt Paschke of Holbrook, L.I., who was caught on video hitting Patriots fan Jaclyn Nugent, was charged with simple assault and disorderly conduct. Nugent of Boston and two other Patriots fans, Amanda McDowell of Marlborough, Mass., and Davis James Sacco of Boston, were hit with the same charges.

“After a thorough review of the evidence, the investigation revealed that Amanda MacDowell and Jaclyn Nugent were observed kicking and punching Paschke in the body and head,” the state cops’ statement said. “Shortly thereafter, Paschke was observed striking Nugent with a punch to the face. David James Sacco was then observed striking Paschke in the face.”

All four will be arraigned in East Rutherford, N.J., Municipal Court on Nov. 13 and have been banned from attending any events at MetLife Stadium. Paschke will have to complete a four-hour online class on how to behave. He will also have to write a handwritten letter of apology and “request permission to be allowed” back into games at MetLife Stadium.


How can the Jets prevent Paschke from attending games before permission is granted? A Jets spokesperson said this is something that is aggressively monitored by security and violators in the past have been arrested for trespassing.


Johnson, who walks around the parking lot before home games, has been pictured with Paschke. The banned Jets fan has also been pictured with coach Rex Ryan.
