DALLAS (AP) -
Dallas Cowboys wide receiver Dez Bryant's
mother has told authorities that she doesn't want to pursue a case
against her son after an argument allegedly turned violent.
A Dallas County district attorney's spokeswoman says the
case DeSoto police filed against Bryant includes an affidavit of
non-prosecution from the complainant. The affidavit means the
complainant doesn't want to proceed.
Police in the southern Dallas
suburb arrested Bryant last week after a July 14 incident in which he
allegedly hit his mother, Angela Bryant, across the face with a ball
cap. A police affidavit says Bryant grabbed his mother by her T-shirt,
causing her bra to tear.
Prosecutors haven't said whether they will pursue the case. Dez Bryant is accused of misdemeanor family violence.
Royce West, Bryant's attorney, didn't return a message Monday.
