Over the weekend, Ezekiel Elliott got himself into a bit of a dust-up when he caught arguing with his girlfriend at a EDC Music festival in Las Vegas.
At one point, Zeke could be seen getting into the face of a staffer and it looks as if Elliott puts a forearm to his body as he pushes him to the ground.
He was then placed in handcuffs and detained, but not arrested. There was a reason for that and it had everything to do with the guy who got pushed down.
Via TMZ:
The guy who saved Zeke’s ass … is the victim, according to cops.
A spokesperson for the Las Vegas Metro Police Dept. tells TMZ Sports … the main reason Zeke wasn’t arrested is because the victim didn’t want to push forward with charges.
“On Sunday, May 19, 2019 at approximately 3 a.m. LVMPD officers working at EDC observed from a distance an adult male, later identified as Elliott, push a security officer to the ground.”
“Two officers approached and placed Elliott into handcuffs while they investigated the incident. The security guard who was the victim of the misdemeanor battery, refused to press charges and officers escorted Elliott a short distance away and he was released.”
Cowboys fans should be thanking this dude, but if this ended in an arrest, and with Elliott having served a suspension from the league already, he was most certainly getting a few games off in 2019 for this one.

Not to mention, Elliott is trying to get a new contract from the Cowboys and he most certainly doesn’t want an arrest to be brought up during negotiations.
