University of Wisconsin Police Department is looking for an unknown suspect in connection to a battery case involving an Iowa Hawkeyes fan who was punched in the face after Saturday’s Badger loss.

Breakdown: Iowa 10, Wisconsin 6

According to a UWPD incident report:

Upon exiting the south ramp of Camp Randall at around 2:30 p.m., the 15-year-old victim, who was wearing Hawkeyes gear, was teasing a Badger fan about the game’s outcome.

It was then that the suspect, who is described to be 20-25, wearing a red shirt and jeans, punched the teenager in the face. The suspect then fled into the crowd.

“It’s a really unfortunate case. The attack was completely unprovoked,” UWPD spokesperson Marc Lovicott said. “We’re hoping that somebody saw something and will come forward and give us some information so we can track this person down and hold them responsible for these uncalled for actions.”
