Sylvester Stallone’s younger half-brother attacked near FSU campus

He will likely be hospitalized for several weeks

Actor Sylvester Stallone’s 19-year-old half-brother sustained major injuries after he was viciously attacked near FSU’s campus early Saturday.

Dante Stallone told the Tallahassee Police Department he was walking along Stadium Drive near FSU’s campus around 3am when two men assaulted him, one of them punching him in the face. He was able to get away and run towards campus.

He sustained major injuries to his face, including a shattered jaw, split palate and multiple broken and knocked out teeth. According to The Washington Times, Stallone will likely spend several weeks in the hospital, and doctors said he will need reconstructive surgery on his face.

Police are still searching for the suspects. They have been described as black men, the first around 5 feet 9 inches tall with a stocky build and the second 6 feet tall wearing a green shirt.

Anyone with information should call Tallahassee Police Department at 891-4200 or CrimeStoppers at 574-5477.
