Maryland Transportation Authority Police said an active criminal investigation is underway after a man allegedly urinated on a family of four, including an 8-year-old girl, during Morgan Wallen’s concert at M&T Bank Stadium in Baltimore. The incident unfolded during Wallen’s One Night At A Time tour, one of the biggest summer shows at the stadium.

The family said the man urinated on two brothers and the child after spending much of the night acting disruptive and intoxicated. Troy Grevelding and Mark Humphrey said they tried to report what happened to Maryland State Police, but were told nothing could be done. The family’s account spread quickly after video of the episode circulated on social media, intensifying criticism of how the situation was handled inside the stadium.

Police said they were aware of the video and were reviewing the case. The episode has now put a spotlight on how M&T Bank Stadium and law enforcement respond when a fan’s intoxicated behavior crosses from nuisance to possible assault, especially at large concerts that draw families, children and thousands of first-time venue visitors.

The legal path is also murky. Maryland assault and battery cases can be difficult if officers do not witness the act themselves, though witness statements and physical evidence can still matter. That leaves families in a narrow window: document the incident, identify witnesses, preserve video and press for a police report while the facts are still fresh. In a venue the size of M&T Bank Stadium, those steps can determine whether a complaint becomes a criminal case or disappears into an unanswered report.

The concert drew thousands to downtown Baltimore despite air-quality warnings that day, adding another layer to the safety conversation around large-scale summer events. Wallen has also dealt with disruptive fans at past shows, including a reported incident in Melbourne, Australia, after someone threw a drink at him. In Baltimore, the attention is now on whether venue staffing, security response and reporting procedures were enough to protect a family in the middle of the crowd.
