Tyreek Hill is again caught in legal trouble as the Miami-Dade Police Department confirmed the Miami Dolphins player is under investigation for allegedly assaulting an employee of Haulover Marina.
Reports said the seven-time Pro Bowl awardee was in the popular destination to celebrate Father's Day. The commotion occurred on a boat wherein Hill argued with an employee he allegedly slapped.
The police were quick to respond to the incident and are said to be looking at a video recording of the incident.
The involved employee, however, will not press charges against the NFL star.
The NFL is expected to investigate the incident under its Personal Conduct Policy. However, a victim's cooperation is necessary to prove a violation. Dolphins fans can have a sigh of relief.
History of Assault by Tyreel Hill
This is not the first time the 29-year-old wide receiver was embroiled in assault allegations.
He was arrested in 2014 for strangling and "throwing like a rag doll" his then 20-year-old pregnant girlfriend, Crystal Espinal. He pleaded guilty to the charges and was sentenced to three years of probation, asked to undergo an anger-management course and a year-long batterer's program.
Espinal also accused him of abusing his three-year-old son's arms, but it turned out false and fabricated.
Miami Dolphins organizations said they were already made aware of the incident.
"We are aware of the situation and have been in contact with Tyreek, his representatives and the NFL," the Dolphins said in the statement. "We will reserve further comment at this time."
