Mackensie Alexander Arrested For Battery, Confronted Man Who Last Saw His Missing Father

Mackensie Alexander is understandably emotional right now as the search for his father continues this week.

The Cincinnati Bengals cornerback left training camp on Tuesday after the disappearance of his father the day before. The situation has now taken another strange turn after he was arrested for battery after returning home to Florida, according to Tom Pelissero of NFL Network.

As the search continues for #Bengals CB Mackensie Alexander’s missing father, Alexander was arrested Tuesday night on one count of battery, per Collier County (Fla.) Sheriff’s Office records. He’d returned home to Florida after his father’s disappearance Monday.
