Hornets Miles Bridges said he was a new man after being accused of domestic violence against the mother of his children Mychelle Johnson.
Sadly, that might not be the case.
A criminal summons was issued Wednesday for Charlotte Hornets forward Miles Bridges for violating a domestic violence protective order, misdemeanor child abuse and injury to personal property, according to a copy of the summons obtained by ESPN.
The alleged incident that led to the summons being issued occurred around 9 p.m. on Oct. 6 at Bridges’ private residence in Charlotte, according to a police report obtained by ESPN. The criminal summons itself describes a series of events during a custody exchange between Bridges, 25, and his former girlfriend, with whom he has two children.
Bridges is accused of throwing billiard balls at her vehicle while the children were inside it, smashing the windshield and leaving dents in the car, according to the summons. He is also accused in the summons of threatening her that if she “told the police he would take everything from her and withhold child support” and that he “allowed his current girlfriend to yell, scream and kick the victim’s car while the children were inside it.” The summons does not say if the woman was in the car.
There also is an unserved arrest warrant for the Bridges, which was first issued on Jan. 2, for violating the domestic violence protective order, according to a Mecklenburg County Sheriff’s Office spokesperson. The warrant was not immediately available because, as of Wednesday night, it had not yet been served.
No word on what the NBA and the Hornets plan to do about this.
