Arizona Cardinals RB Jonathan Dwyer arrested on assault charges

PHOENIX (AP) -- Arizona Cardinals running back Jonathan Dwyer was arrested Wednesday on aggravated assault charges in connection with two altercations at his home in July involving a woman and their 18-month-old child, the latest in a string of such cases involving NFL players.

The Cardinals said they became aware of the situation Wednesday and are cooperating with the investigation.

''Given the serious nature of these allegations we have taken the immediate step to deactivate Jonathan from all team activities,'' the team said in a statement.

The NFL said the case will be reviewed under the league's personal-conduct policy.

One of the counts was ''aggravated assault causing a fracture'' involving the 27-year-old victim, whom they did not identify. Police said they were carrying out a search warrant of Dwyer's residence in pursuit of more evidence.

Well, at least the fracture didn't involve the kid -- whoopie.

In the 70's, I saw a documentary about a family court. A guy was explaining to the judge that his son has broken his arm falling off his bike. The judge said, "I saw the X-rays. The only way your son's arm could break the way it did by someone doing this --" and she made a twisting motion with both hands...
