Craig D. Anteroinen

Craig D. Anteroinen (February 13, 1953 – May 8, 1980) was a 27-year-old McLean man who was fatally injured when he was punched in the head by 25-year-old John W. Tucker in the parking lot of the Denny's restaurant on Lee Highway in the City of Fairfax early on the morning of May 8, 1980.[1]

Anteroinen was taken to Fairfax Hospital, where he died that afternoon.[1]

Tucker attacked Anteroinen because he believed that Anteroinen had called police on Washington Redskins defensive end Coy Bacon at the nearby P. J. Skidoos restaurant, which had resulted in Bacon's arrest on a charge of public drunkenness.[1]
