Raja Jackson, a 25-year-old MMA fighter, was arrested on felony battery charges after a live-streamed incident where he attacked wrestler Stuart Smith during a supposedly scripted wrestling event in Sun Valley, which appeared to escalate into a real assault. The incident was reportedly triggered by a prior confrontation, and Jackson's actions led to his removal from the platform and ongoing police investigation.
