Aaron Donald, a Los Angeles Rams defensive suit, will be reported to police after he allegedly assaulted a man last weekend.
Pitdburgh lawyer Todd Hollis told KDKA-TV he was planning to file criminal charges on behalf of De Vincent Spriggs against Donald over an alleged assault that Hollis said took place between 11:00 and 11:00 local time.
In the conversation with TMZ Sports, Hollis said the alleged altercation started in a nightclub when Spriggs accidentally ran into Donald.
According to TMZ, Hollis claims that Donald became ‘aggressive’ with his client outside the club after both men were asked to leave.
Hollis gave an image to Andy Sheehan of KDKA-TV of the injuries Spriggs allegedly sustained by Donald (warning: image contains graphic content):
Hollis told TMZ that Spriggs had ‘severe trauma’, needed a broken eye socket, broken nose and 16 stitches.
“We are gathering more information and will not comment further at this time,” the Rams said in a statement to TMZ.
Donald spent his seven-year career with the Rams after finishing overall no. 13 in the 2014 NFL draft.
Before beginning his professional career, Donald grew up in the Pittsburgh area and from 2010-13 played college football at the University of Pittsburgh.
Pitt renamed his training center to Donald in 2019 after making a donation to refurbish the facilities.
Donald still has a home in Pittsburgh if he does not live in Los Angeles.
