Tarek El Moussa is best known for his appearance on the US reality television show “Flip or Flop” for almost a decade. The 43-year-old was in the limelight for the wrong reasons this week after he knocked out a man who was allegedly harassing the real estate investor’s father in The Palazzo section of The Venetian Resort on the Las Vegas Strip.
While law enforcement didn’t arrest him for the incident, they did issue a citation for battery. An eyewitness described to TMZ how El Moussa “seriously roughed up” the victim. Tarek was in Sin City speaking at an event before the altercation took place.
