Nassau County police arrested Craig Stanley, 54, who allegedly walked up to a group of people outside the arena following a New York Islanders game Sunday to “touch the victim in an inappropriate manner.”

Stanley was charged with forcible touching. He is due at First District Court in Hempstead on March 19.
