The Baltimore Banner’s Jonas Shaffer reports that Ravens WR Rashod Bateman is facing “three charges stemming from a June incident.”
Shaffer posted a photo of the charges, which include a misdemeanor battery-family violence (first offense) charge, a reckless conduct charge and a first-degree criminal damage to property charge. A Ravens representative said the team is aware of the situation and has been communicating with him directly. The league office has also been notified, and the team will offer no further comment. Shaffer added details to the story in a piece published shortly after his initial post. Bateman was arrested “for allegedly smashing the windshield of a car while his 3-month-old child and the mother of his child were inside.” A report from earlier today indicated the Texans had looked into trading for Bateman. At this point, a suspension may be more likely.
