An arrest warrant has been issued for Buffalo Bills linebacker Von Miller after the former Super Bowl MVP was accused of assaulting a pregnant woman, Dallas police said Thursday.
Officers were called to a “major disturbance” in the 3100 block of North Harwood Street at 11 a.m. on Wednesday, police said in statement.
Miller, 34, and the “victim got into a verbal argument and the suspect assaulted the victim,” police said.
Miller, who was named MVP of the 2016 Super Bowl for the Denver Broncos, was gone by the time officers arrived, according to authorities. The victim was treated for minor injuries.
Miller’s connection to the victim was not immediately clear. He is wanted on a charge of assault against a pregnant person.
Miller grew up in the nearby suburb of DeSoto and he’s in his second season with the Bills, who are off this week.
A rep for the team said the Bills “were made aware of an incident involving Von Miller” Thursday morning.
“We are in the process of gathering more information and will have no further comment at this point,” the rep added.
