A 39-year old Madison man was arrested for substantial battery after a witness said "he did some crazy roundhouse ninja kick up in his head." The head belongs to a 36-year old man with whom the suspect is acquainted. The men were in the midst of an argument, inside a S. Park St. residence Monday night, when the victim was knocked unconscious. The suspect, who told police his kick was an act of self defense, called 911. The victim was transported to a local hospital. He said he was pretty drunk and couldn't remember much.
