The report noted that Satterley’s phone still had Google Maps up, which was pointing him to O’Hare International Airport in Chicago – about 20 miles from where All Elite Wrestling’s (AEW) All Out event was held. An officer wrote that medication was found in Satterley’s backpack and hotel room keys were recovered.

The names of the medication were redacted.

One officer, according to the report, found Satterley’s phone buzzing. The officer picked up the phone and a woman on the other line said that Satterley was heading to Cava for lunch. The report said Satterley was set to return to the United Kingdom on that day.
