Fan Arrested After Throwing Water Bottle At Kyrie Irving

Kyrie Irving was the target of another idiot fan Sunday night who almost beaned the b-baller in the head with a water bottle … and this time the culprit was arrested.

The incident went down in Boston at TD Gardens … as Kyrie was walking out, you see the bottle come within a hair’s breadth of his head. His teammates were outraged, and Tyler Johnson scoped out the crowd and ID’d the culprit.

A fan threw a water bottle at Kyrie Iriving as he was leaving the court, he was then arrested.

Cops say the fan in question is 21-year-old Cole Buckley, who is now charged with one count of assault and battery with a dangerous weapon. Yeah, a water bottle in the wrong hands is a dangerous weapon.

An eyewitness says he saw Buckley throw a Desani water bottle in Irving’s direction. Buckley was wearing a Kevin Garnett jersey as he was taken into custody and removed from the arena.

Irving said after the incident … “You’re seeing a lot of old ways come up… just underlying racism and treating people like they’re in a human zoo. Throwing stuff at people, saying things. There is a certain point where it gets to be too much.”

Kevin Durant also chimed in … “Have some respect for the human beings and have some respect for yourself. Your mother wouldn’t be proud of you throwing water bottles at basketball players or spitting on players or tossing popcorn,” Durant said. “So grow the f**k up and enjoy the game. It’s bigger than you.”
