Watching this over and over, I can't see how he didn't let his frustration and emotions get the best of him and just belt the first stripes he saw. Based on what I see here, suspension for sure:

Wideman looks like he didn't have a clue what had just happened though. It didn't look like he was rushing with adrenalin as you would expect someone to after having a fit of anger. If anything, that video makes it looks less intentional to me.
Either that, or Wideman is a total psychopath. Based on his career to date, I am going with accidental.
