A man was arrested by San Francisco police after he allegedly picked a fight with the "wrong person" — a U.S. Marine veteran who is also a martial arts teacher. The video of the altercation was captured at Crissy Field public park on Sunday by KRON-TV and showed a man brawling with James Hidalgo. 'The guy was a built guy, and he knew that he could intimidate 90% of the people today. ... He just ran into the wrong person.' Hidalgo spoke to KRON and gave his side of the story, which began when he was simply walking his dog Argis at the beach at about 12:30 p.m. "I saw this guy being loud; I didn’t pay no mind. I thought he was trying to get someone’s attention,” Hidalgo recalled. "I said, 'I don’t know what you’re talking about.' Just kind of put my hands up and was like, 'Hey, man, OK, and then he came in and tried to punch me," he added. The video shows the man punching at Hidalgo while his dog hops around them. "So then I pinned him down to the ground until the cops got here," Hidalgo
