Mychelle Johnson, the wife of former Hornets forward Miles Bridges, released a statement along with a series of photos Friday in the aftermath of Bridges’ Wednesday arrest in Los Angeles on a felony domestic violence charge.
Bridges, 24, turned himself in to the Los Angeles Police department following an alleged physical altercation with Johnson, 24, Tuesday night. Fewer than 48 hours later, Johnson addressed the situation on Instagram, and shared photos that appear to show evidence of the injuries she sustained during her altercation with Bridges. The post also included an image of a hospital discharge form detailing the following diagnosis: “Adult victim of physical abuse by male partner; assault by strangulation, brain concussion, closed fracture of nasal bone, contusion of rib, multiple bruises, strain of neck muscle.”
