Darron Lee, a former NFL linebacker and Ohio State star, was arrested Monday in Dublin, Ohio, on two charges of misdemeanor domestic violence and two misdemeanor assault from two separate incidents, according to Franklin County Municipal Court records.
The charges stem from two different altercations, one of which happened on Monday and one that took place on Oct. 17, both at the same location. Per court records, a woman relative of Lee called the police to the home after Lee reportedly punched her in the head numerous times during an argument on Monday.
Before Monday’s incident, Lee’s girlfriend expressed her concerns about not feeling safe around him, according to an affidavit signed by Columbus police. The relative attempted to speak with Lee about his behavior and tell him he needed to leave.
