LOVE Island brawler Haris Namani is facing a police assault quiz over his street fight video.
The amateur boxer, 21, was dumped from the villa hours after The Sun shared footage of him knocking a man to the ground.
He has since claimed it was not a “reflection of my character”.
But police have now launched an investigation and may want to speak to him.
A source said: “It’s at an early stage but police are studying all available evidence.
From tongue scraping to saying no, here are 12 health trends to try in 2023
“It was a vicious assault and has quite rightly caused concern.
“There are also aggravating features given the fact that he is an amateur boxer. Officers have already begun making enquiries and are likely to speak to Haris.”
In a statement after his eviction from the villa, Haris said: “I’m devastated that this video has been seen. It’s not a reflection of my character.
“I’m not someone that goes looking for fights and I didn’t want to be in that situation.
“This was a heat of the moment thing. The video doesn’t show everything that happened. Afterwards, we met up and we cleared the air. We’ve shaken hands and we get along now.”
Sources claim his victim was left with mental health scars after the attack in May 2021 in Doncaster.
One said: “His head could have hit the concrete pavement when he was floored and we could now be talking about an entirely different case.”
