Griffe, I am only saying this to help you avoid problems in the future. This ^ is not how it started. You wrote that it started when he called you "kiddo". You got triggered with that. Understanding why "kiddo" and others names triggers you would be where to start working on this.

The guy was clearly wrong assaulting you and like the others said this is a crime. Focusing on his teasing will not help you in the future. Focusing on your response to teasing will help you quite a lot, however.

Someone can call me all the names they want. I am in charge of my responses to this. I realize that this is difficult for you but it can be something that you can work towards.
