Miami-Dade police have concluded their investigation into Tyreek Hill after allegations of assault and battery, and he has avoided charges.
However, more details have since come out.
Over the weekend, the Miami Dolphins wide receiver was accused of hitting a charter boat worker in the back of the head. The ensuing police report mentioned members of Hill’s party going aboard the charter boat without permission.
Charles Rabin of the Miami Herald has since revealed that the incident took place after the employee told him to stop fishing for tarpon off the dock.
“The Miami-Dade Police indicated to the[ [State Attorney’s Office] that they will be forwarding the information to our office for further review,” state attorney spokesman Ed Griffith told Rabin.
The employee did not want to press charges.

Employees told police that Hill said, “I can buy you and the boat,” informing them that he was “No. 10 with the Miami Dolphins.”
Hill is entering his second season with the Dolphins after spending his first six seasons with the Kansas City Chiefs, winning Super Bowl LIV with them. Despite his absence, the team went on to win the Super Bowl this past season without him.
Hill has been a Pro Bowler in each of his first seven seasons, and this past season, he was named a first-team All-Pro for the fourth time.
The 29-year-old racked up career highs with 119 catches and 1,710 receiving yards.
