According to a copy of the criminal summons that ESPN was able to obtain, Charlotte Hornets player Miles Bridges was issued one on Wednesday for breаking a domestic viоlence protection order, misdemeanor child abuse, and damage to personal property.

According to a police report that ESPN was able to obtain, the alleged incident that resulted in the summons being issued happened at Bridges’ private property in Charlotte at 9 p.m. on October 6. The criminal summons itself details a sequence of incidents that transpired during a custody swap between Bridges, 25, and his child-bearing ex-girlfriend.

According to the summons, Bridges is accused of tossing pool balls at her car while the kids were inside, cracking the glass and causing dents. The summons further claims that he “allowed his current girlfriend to yell, scream, and kιck the victim’s car while the children were inside” and that he threatened to “take everything from her and withhold child support” if she reported the incident to the police. If the woman was in the car, it is not stated in the summons.

According to a spokesman for the Mecklenburg County Sheriff’s Office, there is also an outstanding arrest warrant for the Bridges, which was initially issued on January 2 for breаking the domestic viоlence protection order. Since the warrant had not yet been served as of Wednesday night, it was not immediately available.

A hearing on the subject is set for November 13, 2023, at 9 a.m. at the Mecklenburg County Courthouse in Charlotte, as per the summons.

A Hornets representative stated, “We are aware of the reports and are in the process of gathering more information.”

A request for comment from Bridges’ lawyers was not immediately answered.In a statement released on Thursday, NBA spokesperson Mike Bass stated, “We are in contact with the Hornets and gathering information.”

As part of an agreement with prosecutors, Bridges entered a plea of not guilty to a felony domestic viоlence charge in November and was sentenced to three years of probation instead of jail time. Bridges had been accused of hitting his then-girlfriend in front of their two children in May 2022. Bridges accepted the verdict and sentence without openly acknowledging guilt because of the no-contest plea.

Bridges had to abide by the conditions of a 10-year protective order, which included keeping 100 yards away from the woman in question and not having any contact with her, as part of that agreement. Along with not being permitted to own any firearms, ammunitiоn, or other weapons, he was also forced to perform 100 hours of community service, finish 52 weeks of parenting education and therapy, and submit to weekly Ԁrug tests.

After Bridges missed the entire previous season, the NBA suspended him for 30 games without pay in April. He has now completed 20 of those games. Bridges, who signed a one-year, $7.9 million qualifying offer to rejoin the Hornets in July, was not expected to play in the first ten games of the next regular season due to the ban. Bridges is not participating in the preseason either.

Bridges made his first remarks in public regarding the situation in July, following the signing of the qualifying offer. He said, “I want to apologize to everybody for the pаin and embarrassment that I have caused everyone, especially my family.” I’ve utilized this year off to focus on attending therapy sessions and improving myself so that I may become the best version of myself, someone my family and everyone here can be proud of.”
