Buffalo Bills linebacker Von Miller turned himself in to police on Thursday after he was charged in a warrant with domestic violence against the mother of his children, who is pregnant. He would soon be released on bail.
Miller’s girlfriend downplayed the incident.
“We’re fine,” she wrote. “Things were blown way out of context. This is actually outrageous!”
She called the incident “a huge misunderstanding” and described it as “a verbal disagreement.”
“No one assaulted anyone,” she texted. “This is insane. And sad.”
Well, the incident was caught on the 911 call she made and this is clearly not blown out of context since the words came out of her mouth on what Miller did.
In the call that was released by TMZ, his pregnant girlfriend explained to dispatch Miller had choked her, hit her, and pulled her hair.

“My boyfriend was choking me,” she said, “hitting me, pulling my hair.”
She added, “I have bruises all over me, I have hair — my hair’s out.”
The operator then asked if she needed paramedics, and she replied, “I don’t know,” before revealing she had “some blood on me.”
According to documents obtained by TMZ, the Buffalo Bills defensive star became “visibly angry” with her while pushing her after she and Miller got into an argument over weekend travel plans.
Authorities said the woman alleged that during the assault she told the football player, “Stop I’m pregnant.”
Miller left the scene before the cops arrived.
The 34-year-old Miller is facing a charge of third-degree felony assault of a pregnant woman, which is punishable by 2 to 10 years in prison and a $10,000 fine.
