Breaking Update: Arrest Warrant Issued For Heath Slater

Souce(s): FOX5 & The Wrestling Observer

UPDATE: As noted earlier here on the website, FOX 5 in Atlanta reports that Atlanta police have issued an arrest warrant for Heath Slater (real name Heath Miller) for an incident at the Wrestlemania 27 after-party in 2011.

Corrine Oliver, who was working security, claims that Slater put her in a chokehold and tried to get her into an elevator to drag her to his room at the Hyatt Regecny Atlanta. She claims the attack caused damage to five vertebrae in her back.

She reported the matter to her supervisor (at Allied Barton Securities) the morning after it happened, but she waited three months to file a police report. She claimed that she waited for the supervisors to file the report but they didn’t. She also said that other wrestlers saw what Slater was doing and didn’t help. The police report said the incident was a “simple assault/battery”.

WWE issued the following statement earlier this evening:

“WWE has been advised that a misdemeanor arrest warrant has been issued against Heath Miller (aka Heath Slater), but we have not seen a copy or been provided with the underlying charges. Once this information is received by WWE, we will take the appropriate action.”

At the time the story first broke in 2011, sources in WWE claimed Slater was with his fiancée on the night in question. Another source claims that Slater and his girlfriend actually got engaged later that evening.

ORIGINAL: According to police in Atlanta, GA, a warrant has been issued for WWE wrestler Heath “Heath Miller” Slater stemming from a 2011 incident at a WrestleMania 27 afterparty.

FOX-5 television in Atlanta reports that Corinne Oliver, who was working security at the event, is accusing Slater of putting her in a chokehold and trying to get her into an elevator. She claims he was trying to drag her back to his room at the Hyatt Regency Atlanta where the party was taking place.

Oliver says she was inured during the attack and broke five vertebrae in her back.

Oliver apparently went to her supervisor on the morning of the incident and told him about it but nothing was ever done. She then waited almost three months to file a police report. She claims the reason she waited so long is because she expected her supervisors at Allied Barton Securities to file a police report and they never did. She also claims another wrestler witnessed the incident but didn’t do anything to help her. The police report described the incident as a “simple assault/battery.”

WWE attorney Jerry McDevitt says the charges were filed against Slater and not the company.
