Canadian e-sport player and TV personality Guillaume Patry has been involved in a barroom scuffle.

On Monday at about 4 a.m., a Korean man, identified only as Kim, in his 20s, approached Patry, 33, in a bar in Itaewon, Seoul, where the star was with two Korean women.

The meeting turned into a scuffle, with Patry reportedly grabbing Kim’s collar, according to media reports.

Yongsan police took Patry into custody. He admitted grabbing Kim’s collar, and was later released.

Patry is a regular guest on JTBC’s entertainment show “Non-summit,” where foreigners from 12 countries lock horns about various social issues.
