Check it out! Three officers escorted him from the Miami-Dade Corrections and Rehabilitation Department as he left Florida’s Turner Guilford Knight Correctional Center just before 6 PM on Friday, according to local broadcaster WPLG.
Davis tried to hide himself by pulling his white collared shirt over his head, but he showed little interest in talking to local reporters who were kept at bay by his bodyguard team.
According to reports, the professional athlete was arrested early on Friday on a misdemeanor domestic violence charge related to an incident that happened in western Miami-Dade last month.
During a custody dispute on June 15, Davis is charged with assaulting his children’s mother. He allegedly slapped her in the face, causing a noticeable laceration, and struck her in the back of the head, intensifying their verbal altercation.
According to reports, his car was spotted by a Miami Beach license plate scanner, leading to his arrest.
