Sanchez allegedly confronted the man for parking his truck in an alley between two hotels, claiming he could not be there. Brooke Sutton / Getty Images Prosecutors in Marion County, Ind., added a Level 5 felony battery charge against former NFL quarterback Mark Sanchez on Monday for his alleged attack on a 69-year-old truck driver in Indianapolis on Saturday. Sanchez, 38, has pleaded not guilty to all charges. The additional battery charge, which falls within the second-lowest felony level under Indiana’s criminal code, carries a sentencing guideline of one to six years in prison and may also result in a fine of up to $10,000. Sanchez, an NFL analyst for Fox Sports, initially faced charges of battery resulting in injury, public intoxication and unlawful entry of a motor vehicle, all misdemeanors. Marion County Prosecutor Ryan Mears said during the Monday news conference that the additional felony charge was due to the alleged assault “involving serious bodily injury.”
